Packers New Weapon: Tavon Austin

In one of the greatest mixtapes of all-time, #9 for Dunbar High School — Tavon Austin — shows lighting-fast speed and incredible quickness that can only be outdone by his Deion Sanders-esque swag.

Austin continued to build his legend at West Virginia. From 2009-2012, Austin emassed 398 plays from scrimmage for 4,446 yards and 35 touchdowns, including 186 touches for 1,932 yards and 15 touchdowns in his senior season.

After being drafted 8th overall in the 2013 NFL Draft by the St. Louis Rams, Austin fell short of the high expectations that come with being a top-10 pick in the NFL, but he did show some flashes of production.
