With the No. 41 overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, the St. Louis Rams selected Florida State Seminoles defensive back Lamarcus Joyner. Joyner was one of the key members on the Seminoles during their national championship run last season.
Joyner came in at No. 49 among prospects on SB Nation’s top 200 big board, making him sixth among cornerbacks.
Joyner burst onto the scene down in Tallahassee as a true freshman in 2010, playing in every game that season. The 5'8, 184-pound corner came into college with quite the pedigree, having won the USA Today National Defensive Player of the Year award, per NFL.com.
During his junior season, Joyner was made into a strong safety. In 2013, Joyner moved back into a corner role, playing both outside and inside. Many believe he will be a corner in the pros due to a lack of size. Joyner made 69 tackles last season and snagged a pair of interceptions. The diminutive star posted 41 straight starts to finish his collegiate career.
