A once first-round-caliber Texas tackle whose stock slipped to Round 6, where the Eagles bet on his upside.
Cameron Williams entered the 2025 draft as a 21-year-old physical marvel off a Texas team that reached the College Football Playoff semifinals, only to see his stock fall on tape questions late in the process. Philadelphia scooped him up in the sixth round, and he's now developing behind one of the league's better offensive lines.
Path to the league
A Duncanville, Texas native and a Top 100 national recruit, Williams started 15 games at right tackle for Texas in 2024 on a Longhorns offensive line that was a finalist for the Joe Moore Award. He left college after his junior season and was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the sixth round, No. 207 overall, in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Career highlights
At 6-foot-6, 317 pounds with hands measuring over 11 inches, Williams profiles as a developmental tackle with rare physical tools. He made Philadelphia's 53-man roster as a rookie, a notable feat for a sixth-round pick on the defending Super Bowl champions' roster.
2025 season recap
Williams' rookie year was cut short by a shoulder injury that landed him on injured reserve before Week 2. He was activated off IR in December and finished the season having played 51 offensive snaps, earning a 69.0 PFF grade while allowing just one total pressure in pass protection.
