With the 92nd overall pick in the third round of the 2016 NFL draft, the Arizona Cardinals have selected Brandon Williams out of Texas A&M.

A former running back from Oklahoma, Williams transferred to College Station and moved to the defensive side of the ball for his final year in college. He operated as a defensive back under defensive coordinator and associate head coach John Chavis and finished the season with 37 tackles and seven pass breakups.

His position change, accompanied by a 4.37 40-yard dash time, helped Williams to race up the draft boards and hear his name called on day two of the draft. He is the second player off the board for the Aggies, following Germain Ifedi who was selected 31st overall by the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night.

At 5-foot-11 and 197 pounds, Williams' experience on both sides of the ball will prove to be valuable at the next level.

Here's what the experts were saying about Williams leading up to the draft:

Dane Brugler of NFLDraftScout.com: Once a five-star running back at Oklahoma, Williams is now an intriguing cornerback prospect after making the move to defense as a senior for the Aggies. After a tumultuous freshman year in Norman, he found himself homesick and transferred to Texas A&M, sitting out the 2012 season.

He found himself buried on the running back depth chart his first two seasons in College Station and Aggies' head coach Kevin Sumlin asked him to move to the secondary during 2015 spring practice, becoming Texas A&M's first two-way player since 1968 (also stayed on the running back depth chart in 2015).

Gridiron Now's Cavender Neutze: Upon arriving at Texas A&M in January 2015, John Chavis saw something in Brandon Williams, the running back, that he just could not let go. He saw a potential star at cornerback.

NFL.com's Lance Zierlein: Oklahoma claimed a major recruiting victory by bringing in the five-star, top-20 overall recruit out of Texas. Williams played eight games as a true freshman (219 rush yards), suffering a neck injury in the finale, from which he fully recovered. However, the Sooners' logjam at the running back position and Williams' desire to be closer to his young daughter caused him to transfer to A&M. He attempted to have the NCAA waive the transfer requirement of sitting out a season, but was denied. Williams played a part in the Aggies' offense in 2013 (44-269, one touchdown) and 2014 (379 yards, three touchdowns; 9-65 receiving) before switching to the cornerback position.

Steve Keim said they called Brandon Williams tonight and at the time he was in the Texas A&M locker room. They liked that. — Adam Green (@theAdamGreen) April 30, 2016
