The Los Angeles Rams hope they got a steal in the sixth round when they selected TCU cornerback Tre’Vius Hodges-Tomlinson at No. 182 overall. The Jim Thorpe Award winner was the nation’s top defensive back last season, proving his smaller stature wasn’t a hindrance in the secondary.
At 5-foot-8 and 178 pounds, he’s not the biggest cornerback, but he simply makes plays and doesn’t allow very many completions in coverage – only 28 on 81 targets last season, actually.
