Southern Cal defensive lineman Leonard Williams could be top draft pick

Bob McGinn’s Draft Series: Defensive Lineman

Defensive end Leonard Williams, running a drill at the NFL scouting combine, is seen as the best player in the draft.

Green Bay — Southern California's Leonard Williams stands head and shoulders above not only every defensive lineman but also every player in the National Football League draft.

It won't be known until Thursday if Williams becomes the first player selected. In 2006, Mario Williams was the last defensive lineman chosen No. 1.

If Williams isn't taken first, it would be more about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or another team via trade using the top pick on a quarterback.
