NFL draft coverage details a flurry of trades and selections. Key moves include Dallas, Kansas City, and Minnesota changing positions, Bryant McKinnie and Levi Jones among top picks, plus Donte Stallworth and Jeremy Shockey advancing to prominent roles. The first round set an all time long 5 hour 48 minute pace with nine first round linemen and three tight ends.
The Houston Texans land a future quarterback with David Carr while Detroit reaches for Joey Harrington at third. Cincinnati shocks by drafting Levi Jones at No. 10 and Indianapolis bets on Dwight Freeney as a top pass rusher. Giants add Jeremy Shockey, Denver selects Ashley Selbie, Green Bay trades up for Javon Walker, and Atlanta signs Warrick Dunn while filling other needs.
Dallas selects Oklahoma defensive back Roy Williams with the first overall choice, pairing him with five-time Pro Bowl safety Darren Woodson. The Cowboys traded up to secure Williams, passing on Quentin Jammer and pursuing options with Kansas City and Jacksonville before finalizing the deal. Williams bypassed his senior season after earning the Bronko Nagurski and Thorpe Award laurels, totaling 101 tackles and five interceptions for the Sooners.
