Now if you're wondering when Jason Williams put down a basketball and picked up a football, that's understandable.

There are three NBA-related J. Williams of various types - the former Duke player and current TV announcer Jay Williams, whose career was derailed in a motorcycle accident; heavily tattooed Orlando Magic point guard Jason Williams, who is somehow still in the league; and former NBA big man Jayson Williams, who pleaded guilty to assault in the shooting death of a limo driver earlier this year and is now serving a minimum of 18 months in prison.

The Panthers' Jason Williams, though, isn't really into basketball. At only 6-foot-1, that's probably a good thing.

Fowler is without a doubt the worst Panthers writer out there. Why spend three paragraphs talking about people in the NBA just because they share what I'm sure is a very common name?

I'm going to show my ignorance -- when they kept saying Jason Williams, I thought they were talking about Jamar Williams, who I now remember is on IR.

Me too. I was excited, because I really wanted Jamar to get a chance with us. Oh well. I hope this Jason Williams guy is the real deal and sticks with us.

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
