Honestly Williams has looked better than Guice this season.

Of course not but...

Guice will go for over 200 total yards against Auburn and everyone will be on his jock again.

Williams was goon be drafted by someone regardless.

I doubt his draft stock has changed much even as well as he has played this year.

He may go from a 4-6 round guy to a 3-5 round guy.

Not really a knock on him but he plays a position that holds little draft value in today's NFL.

Guys like LF and Ezekiel Elliot are the exceptions.

And LF7 was hurt last year when people were saying Guice was better.

Williams reminds me a lot of Joseph Addai. Just a tough, durable, surehanded RB.

Williams looks like he should be the starter right now.

Anyone who thought Guice was just as good as LF7 was crazy. Guice is a really good player but LF is a once in a generation talent. Dude is just off the charts with the combination of strength, speed, and agility on the football field.

Guice just doesn't look that committed this year or he's hurt a lot worse than they say he is. Something's wrong and you can tell he just doesn't want to cut like he did last year. If he's hurt they need to leave him on the bench before he seriously injures his knee.

Guice reminds me of Dominick Davis/Williams, whatever.

He needs an FB or lead blocker. With all the formation changes pre-snap, I'm not sure why they don't throw in an I-form. Ensminger had a nice one last year with 2 HBs going out for passes. (Meaning do more than just run out of it)

I'm really happy for D Williams, and he's a great Tiger.

But he doesn't have much NFL stock. NFL running backs have to have speed. Heisman Trophy winners like Ron Dayne tore through college defenses but found life different in the NFL. Williams doesn't have a run over 20 yards this year. That's a telling stat. I compare him to a guy like Kenny Hillard, but even he had some big runs at LSU. Hillard may have been a step quicker than Darrell Williams.

You don't know what you are talking about, DW has something that will be successful in the NFL. He is faster that you think, and speed is not what did Dayne in.

This! And, if need be, he can drop 10 lbs and pick up a little more agility

It's pretty apparent to me that they've been keying on Guice hardcore. The jet sweep is more effective with Guice in the game.

Guice has not been healthy all year. Williams has been the better back, in fact I wish they'd feed him more and do less of all the jet sweeps.(Even though we scored off one this past week)

But a healthy Guice compared to a healthy Fournette. Fournette is definitely better.
