Overrated Ricky Williams
Posted on 6/27/13 at 3:25 pm to Melvin
I always though Ricky Williams was highly underrated. People over-value the dumbass Mike Ditka trade, but fact is he was very productive. Just under 900 yards as a rookie (while missing 4 games and being hobbled for most of the rest) extropolate that out over the season and he gets just shy of 1200 while carrying the weight of the franchise thanks to the draft trade. His second year he had 1000 yards in 10 games, on pace for 1600 in a full season (thats a good/great season no matter who you are) then 1245 in a full season his last in new orleans.
He averaged about 1400 yards from scrimmage all while missing 3 1/3 games per year. Or about 550 more per game than reggie bush did.
I think a lot of people just felt like since he didn't seem to like New Orleans that much and the pressure seemed to have gotten to him, that he just wasn't very good with the Saints, that's why I feel he was very underrated.
