Round 6: OG/C - Zack Williams - WSU


Stumpy

Recommended Posts

6'3" - 309 lbs - 5.12 40yd - 30 reps

The official NFL combine site following Saturday’s session rated Williams a "top performer" in the 20-yard shuttle, 3-cone drill and bench press...

Williams started all 12 games this past season and earned the Mike Utley Award at the postseason banquet, given to the top Cougar o-lineman. A junior college transfer who redshirted his first season at WSU in 2008, Williams started 19 games in his Cougar career, missing four to injury.

Ok here we go:

Notes: Played center at Glendale (Ariz.) Community College from 2006-07. Moved to guard and redshirted with the Cougars in ’08. Played eight games in ’09, starting seven at left guard (non-start came on Senior Night). Sustained a high ankle sprain against Hawaii early in the season and missed four games. Moved to center in ’10 and started all 12 games.

Positives: Outstanding size and girth to anchor and hold the line against big bodies. Flashes some aggression in the run game. Shows pop in his punch. Versatile — has played inside and outside.

Negatives: Top-heavy and tends to bend at the waist and slip off blocks. Appeared very stiff and rigid at the East-West Shrine Game. Struggles to reach the block point on the second level. Needs to improve his functional lower-body strength. Immature early in his career.

Summary: Thick-bodied, long-armed, versatile interior player most ideally suited for a role as a swing backup.

NFL projection: Priority free agent.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
