Lots of concerns (fair or not) regarding his ability to tackle in space. He will be a first rounder. I would be shocked if he fell to the second round. Long cover corners that can run are highly coveted in the NFL.

This is stupid. Watch his film. First or second DB off the board no question.

Many LSU guys besides Greedy have not done the pro shuttle and 3 cone drill at the Combine because their times are always better at home.

Skipped the bowl game, did not test well at the combine and his numbers were average in the skill tests. May not give a 110% is the other reason.

One player quit on his team and is falling down draft boards.

Another player didn't quit and continues to climb draft boards.

He declared too early. Should have stayed another year.

Obviously,the man can play. I just saw him projected to be mid twenties.

His been getting projected to the Steelers for the most part this year, but at the same time, he's still considered the #1 CB.

Only real difference is that people's board are changing on who they want. Somebody is about to over draft the freak athlete WR at Ole Miss, and the DL and EDGE is LOADED. Look at Clemson's DL for example. Those guys were supposed to go last year but came back and at least 3 of them are considered first round picks.

Williams will be an excellent cover corner, regardless of where he goes (and I do hope it is to my Steelers).

At the combines the announcers/draft gurus kept saying there are serious concerns on his ability to defend the quick slants and in routes. This seems to be their major reason for dropping him.

It's probably because of the silent k. Teams don't trust people with silent k's.

Just really odd that not even 4 months ago people hailed him as the best CB LSU has ever had. Amazing how fast things happen.


Greedy is good, but anyone who honestly thought he was the best CB to ever go to LSU needs to have their head examined.

This is from a 247 article which came out today.
"Greedy Williams — who has the perfect name for a cornerback — has all the tools to be a Pro Bowler in the future." They have him as the 20th pick.

But those highlights from the Fiesta Bowl should have propped him up ... oh wait.
