If it hasn't been said enough already, the 2019 NFL Draft is one involving prospects largely on the defensive side of the game. The likes of Hakeem Butler, Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, and Amani Hooker finding suitors in Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints respectively highlighted the first quarter of Day 3 of the 2019 NFL Draft.
More than 20 players drafted in Round 4 belonged to that end of the spectrum and things weren't going to change much in Round 5 given the remaining athletes on the board. As many as seven franchises had two picks in this round. The process of snapping role players continued as seven out of the first 10 picks in this round were defensive recruits.
Without further ado, let us have a look at how everything transpired in Round 5 of the 2019 NFL Draft.
