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.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
