He’s worn two numbers, 18 and 3. Amor Fati

You can get dizzy in a second chasing all the Draft information out there on the Internet. I think every scenario, for every top 150 player, going to every team has been covered. How many thousands of people put out mock drafts or 'draft guides'?

I think I'm ready for the Draft, lol. But back to Williams: he really does indeed seem like a Cordarelle Patterson type.

With the ball in his hands you definitely see Patterson.  But the intermediate stuff, the catch point, contested catches, stacking guys, I see a slightly bigger T.O. Definitely a WR/RB hybrid. I’ve seen a couple guys move him to RB. How do you watch him and say he’s got bad hands? I’m putting his drops on concentration and some bad QB play.



And in second place…

WR/RB Hybrid...

Younger, bigger, stronger Deebo...I'd sign up for that.

Imagine coming out in 12 personnel. Pretty heavy run indicator. Williams is the RB. Pre snap you motion him out and flex Hock to the slot if not wider. Now you're 4 wide and the D is in more of a run D personnel package. Timeout? Cover Hock with a LB? You have to double Jefferson.

As a WR with the height and athleticism, reminds me a little of Sidney Rice, has been some time since we have had a big WR who can go up and get it, I would like to see us get a bigger WR to compliment the current mix, other than Jefferson at 6'1" the rest of the group is under 6'.

One of the shames of the Patterson era is that we didn't do much of this with him, or even running routes out of the backfield.

Yup. Musgrave was the only one willing to get him touches. This guy you can easily use as a traditional WR if you want. Or you could line him up as a traditional RB.

Depends on so many things. DK Metcalf should be the best WR in the league then. But so much more goes into being a WR, so the skinny 6'1" kid blows everyone away.

Why, because he can run routes, DBs can't read where he is going. Same with Thielen. Same with Diggs. Being able to run routes and disguise them makes them uncoverable. A big dude that can simply run fast isn't much of a threat in the NFL.

I see a little more than a big guy who can run fast. I see a big guy who moves like a small guy. I see a guy who provides traits that no one on the roster has. I see a chess piece that will cause issues for DCs. I see multi position versatility. 

I think McCardell could probably get him to run crisper routes. He doesn’t have to teach him to be a mismatch.
