I didn’t watch the draft too closely so does anyone know what exactly caused Greedy to slide into the 2nd round with 5 corners selected before him? I seriously doubt it’s because he slipped the bowl game. I heard something about he wouldn’t interview with anyone but I’m not exactly sure.

Interview issues were speculating. He also needs to put on a little more weight to help in the run game.

With this said, I expect a great career out of him. Browns have some good young corners now.

I was dejected when he wasn selected in the late 1st round. He probably felt rejected at first but was elated after his name was finally called .

Jesus Christ I’m so so sorry I didn’t spell check myself. Of course there’s no way you could have surmised I meant to say selected instead of dejected.

however it is obvious that subconsciously you really did mean dejected, thus wrote dejected instead of what you now claim you meant.
Of course he felt dejected, he was projected to be the first CB off the board, and then selected. Many things played into his dropping. I think his so called pick and choose tackling has been over stated and is not accurate. Sure he isn't going to come up and lay the wood but he will grab and hang on. Also probably some perceived character issues with not playing in the bowl game and interview situation, etc. He just got really bad advice.

Why the Slide?: Greedy Williams, CB, LSU


quote:

In speaking to team sources, there were a number of reasons why Williams slid into the second round. First of all, some teams had Williams with a second-round grade, so they felt it was appropriate for him to be available on the second night of the draft. Other team sources said Williams slipped because he is thin-framed and lacks strength. He got dinged for lacking in toughness and tackling, while also having some limitations in coverage. Some team sources felt that Williams was only a fit for press-man coverage and did not feel he could play in zone or off-man coverage in the NFL. All of those issues combined led to Williams slipping out of the first round.
