Former Tiger Tre' Williams is the fourth Gus Malzahn product off the board in the 2018 NFL Draft as the Mobile, Alabama was selected by X with the No. xx pick in the draft Saturday afternoon.
The fourth-rounder played in 36 games at Auburn with 10 starts, accumulating 188 total tackles and 10 tackles for loss.
In his hometown during the Senior Bowl, Williams saw his stock skyrocket with standout practices and a productive outing in the main event. At Auburn's pro day, the 6-foot-2, 236-pound run-stuffer cemented his 3rd to 5th round projections with some of the best performances of the day.

Williams was plagued by occasional injury in his Auburn career, but when healthy, he was one of the team's most productive defenders. The x add him to a defense that ranks x in x.
"Whoever gets him is getting a really good player, getting a really good person," Auburn linebackers coach Travis Williams said. "He doesn't wear his feelings on his sleeves; you can coach him hard and he wants to be better. I think he'll be a pro for a long time."
