Rams 2022 Draft Prospect Profile: Joshua Williams (CB, Fayetteville State)

Joshua Williams has seemingly gone overlooked in the pre-draft process and he could be a mid-round steal for the Rams in the 2022 NFL draft.

The cornerback position has been a strength for the Los Angeles Rams over the past few years, especially when the team acquired Jalen Ramsey via trade from the Jacksonville Jaguars. Darious Williams, who has been Ramsey’s running mate on the Rams on the opposite side of the field, signed with Ramsey’s former team this offseason.

With Williams now a member of the Jaguars, the Rams could seek out a replacement in the 2022 NFL draft. As of this moment, Robert Rochell and David Long Jr. could be in store for expanded roles next season, but I’d venture to say that Los Angeles will undeniably consider selecting a cornerback in the draft.

Less than a week before the draft begins, I’ll be concluding my draft prospect profiles for the Rams, where I’ll pinpoint a few cornerbacks that they could pursue in the draft. After highlighting Cam Taylor-Britt as a potential option, Joshua Williams out of Fayetteville State could also make sense for Los Angeles.
