Seriously though, I feel like he works harder than pretty much everyone on earth.

Top 10 could definitely be too high, though.

Draft is a crapshoot. You can pick any player drafted in the first round and have a 103% of being correct they were overrated if they went to Alabama

I agree. That hybrid SS/OLB position the NFL is creating these days is perfect for him. Just needs to get into the right system.

Conversely, he could be a worthless in the wrong system.

I'll use college as an example:

A. He'd KILL IT in Chavis' 4-3 system as a the Tyrann Mathieu roaming nickel.

B. He'd disappear in Saban's system of big arse LBs and pure cover corners and big safeties.

Just IMO.

My answer to this thread is Trubiski and Tabor.

While you have an argument, he's been compared to Von Miller, let's go by the college stats:

Both played 4 years:
Miller tfl: 50.5
Williams tfl: 30

Miller sacks: 33
Williams: 20

Miller 40: 4.49
Williams: 4.68

One area where Williams dominated:
Miller failed drug tests: 0
Williams: cannot be determined at this time, as # is subject to change

Methinks the NFL teams aren't as high on him as the TV folks. Just a hunch.

Can't call a late 2nd rounder a bust if they're not starter material.

Based on watching him for 3 years. 1 career interception that came on a dropped pass. Gets beat way more than a 1st rounder should. Has trouble getting off blocks. Disappears in big games.

Killer is not the only one who saw all that. Hes like a heavy 6 5" forward who scores in a college system and plays in a 2 3 zone in college, but who cant defend in the nba.

Peppers better not go in person to the draft because no one is taking him in round one to play defense. He has no defensive position in the nfl. I hope he finishes his degree this spring.
He better not go all tebow and insist he is a defender. He can make a team as a mid round offense and special teams guy.

Von Miller improved when he started dabbling in recreational narcotics.

So conversely Tim Williams will get worse if he stops dabbling in rec drugs?
