Charlie Campbell... Mykel Williams?

Now, for those who don't know, Charlie from WalterFootball.com basically as a source that's allowed him to basically know who our pick is going to be for the last 4-5 years or so (if I can remember), so I track what he says about us. For the last 2 weeks, it seems he's finally focused on a player for us, and hasn't budged in his last three mock drafts... so... welcome Mykel Williams? Plus, Dan Morgan did say the following...

 

“Yeah, I don’t think we needed the Eagles game to understand that,” Morgan said with smile. “I think, both sides of the ball, you have to win the line of scrimmage. You have to be bigger, you have to be tougher, you have to be more physical—and that’s what we’re looking to do around here.

“We’re looking to build that defensive line like we built the offensive line last season. Give the fans a good product on the field, give us a good product on the field. And we’re excited. We’re excited about the guys in free agency, we’re excited about the guys in the draft, and we think we can fill some of those holes.”

If you're looking at what they can give you out of the gate, I'm really not a Williams fan.  He's got great measurables and I can see being a combine riser, but his work this past season wasn't impressive from what I've seen.  He's good, not elite against the run and has a LONG ways to go as a pass rusher.  You don't draft a 1st with potential and measurables weighted THAT heavily into the pick.

Last few years it seems he at least gets the top 10 spot on.

Trust his mocks close to draft as it does seem like he does have inside info.

The Ickey draft, he got the entire top 10 completely correct, even the order of the Giants two picks. He definitely is the best of the business right now.

He also locked the Panthers to Jaycee Horn 2 weeks before the draft, and most everyone here didn't see that pick coming when his name was called on draft night

Yep, he is zeroing in on Williams or Stewart for us.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
