Hidden Gems at Every Position in the 2013 NFL Draft Class BY MATT STEIN (FEATURED COLUMNIST) ON FEBRUARY 26, 2013 13,270 reads 18 Previous 12 of 17 Next Outside Linebacker: Trevardo Williams, Connecticut Jared Wickerham/Getty Images When you record 11.5 sacks in a college season, NFL teams are going to take notice. That is what Trevardo Williams did this past year for Connecticut, and that type of pass-rushing ability is what he'll bring to an NFL team. Trevardo has an explosive aspect to his game that allows him to consistently get to the edge when rushing the quarterback. While he is a little undersized for his position, he makes up for it with a great motor and natural instincts. Due to his likely transition from defensive end to outside linebacker, teams may have some hesitation about using too high of a draft pick on him. However, Trevardo should be able to step in immediately and excel as a situational pass-rusher in the league. Honorable Mentions: Etienne Sabino, Ohio State; Michael Clay, Oregon Due to the fact that Sabino and Clay both played at successful, big-time colleges, they are polished prospects heading into the NFL. They both have limitations (Clay's size and Sabino's inconsistency), but they have the aggressiveness and attitude of key players for an NFL defense. url i think?
