I really like everything about Williams's game --
when asked about not seeing the field a lot last year he prophetically said "well, I have two first rounders ahead of me."
But what he showed in the playoffs in 2024-25 was pretty special. And when he got his chances last year he was great.
He doesn't appear to have the freaky speed of Love, but who does? He runs with excellent vision and pad level. He gets the extra three yards. He's a really gifted receiver. I like his attention to detail.
I know people are excited about James and so am I. But having a guy like Williams who's going into his third year in the system, has obviously strong leadership skills, etc. That's quite a luxury in today's college football. I think he's going to be really hard to get off the field.
