it is

www.deangelowilliams.org

but it has not been updated in a long time.

However, it is his official web site..

By the way, when I posted at the beginning of the year that DeAngelo was just as good as Adrian Peterson, and was probably the best back in the league...okay, I guess a lot of you really never had the chance to see him at Memphis. So I understand why you thought I was a little bit off.

"You can't compare the two"..."are you crazy"...you are just a Memphis homer"...etc. "He has to do it for three more years"...etc....

I can understand perhaps. But stats seem to support my thinking, however I realize not everyone in Charlotte...or wherever you are...had the advantage of watching him in college and just KNOWING that when he gets to the pros...he was going to be incredible.

So, no I told you so's here, I agree that you did not know for obvious reasons what I knew. Nothing DeAngelo has done this year surprises me at all, with the exception that even I underestimated his ability to run as well as he has between the tackles.

Enjoy him! And, whatever it takes to re-sign him...it has to be done.

You do realize that everytime you post about how you were the first person to know DeAngelo would be a star, you are essentially saying, “I told you so,” right?

Trust me. We get it. Good job, you’re an excellent talent scout who no doubt would have recognized DeAngelo’s skill and foreseen his rise to become the NFL’s best since Barry Sanders, nay, since time immemorial, even had you attended or followed an entirely different college. You, my good sir, are validated.

It’s a shame there’s not a forum over at www.deangelowilliams.org.

person to know that DeAngelo would be a star.

EVERYONE in Memphis who watched him play knew that also.

What I am amazed at is the scouts who did not take him. He should have been a top 5 choice.

Just shows you. All of us in Memphis said "why in the world would you draft Reggie Bush over DeAngelo Williams?"

Honestly a lot of pro scouts don't know much more than we do.

I may, however, have been the first one to post it here. I NEVER had doubts what was going to happen.

Sorry, you weren't even the first one here. I've been posting on this board since the day after Dwill was drafted. You didn't bother to show up until he was made a starter. You can quit patting yourself on the back.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      Poster board? Were you trying to use the term poster child?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive short or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads, be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
