DT Tyler Davis to the New Orleans Saints in Round 5

Davis spent five seasons with the Tigers, becoming Clemson's first defensive player to be a four-time All-ACC selection. He recorded 167 tackles (29.5 for loss), 16 sacks and four pass deflections over 56 games.

Davis would join Bresee in New Orleans to bolster the team's interior, which struggled against the run last year.

DE Xavier Thomas to the Arizona Cardinals in Round 5

Thomas played for the Tigers for six seasons, logging 133 tackles (34 for loss, including 17.5 acks) and nine pass deflections. After he ran 4.62 seconds in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, he ran 4.56 at Clemson's Pro Day, which would have ranked third among defensive ends in the combine.

Thomas would add an explosive edge rusher for the Cardinals, who are rebuilding their defense under secondyear coach Jonathan Gannon.

CB Sheridan Jones to the San Francisco 49ers in Round 7

Jones had 108 tackles, 10 pass breakups and three interceptions in five seasons at Clemson, has the prototypical size (6-0, 190 pounds) for an outsider cornerback and plays with a physicality that helps in run support.

He would add depth to the NFC champions' secondary in their bid to return to the Super Bowl.

DE Justin Mascoll undrafted to Minnesota Vikings

Mascoll developed into a a capable edge rusher in six seasons with the Tigers and would add depth for the Vikings, who lost many players on the defensive line this offseason.

S Jalyn Phillips undrafted to Buffalo Bills

Phillips played five seasons with Clemson, recording 187 tackles, 14 pass deflections and two interceptions. He missed five games last season because of a shoulder injury and participated in Clemson's Pro Day to show he is healthy. The Bills lost long-time safeties Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde this offseason, allowing Phillips to compete for a reserve role.

C Will Putnam undrafted to Denver Broncos

Putnam was a four-year starter along the offensive line, playing two seasons at guard and two at center. His versatility is a plus, and the Broncos are looking for line depth after losing their starting center Lloyd Cushenberry in the offseason.
