Brandon Williams, DT, Missouri Southern

[OHK]

Couldn't find a recent thread on him, but I think he's a player to note for us. He's a big nose tackle, weighing in at the Senior Bowl at 6'2", 341 lbs. At the Senior Bowl, he showed great strength against the run, in addition to some surprising athleticism for his size. Although a lot of nose tackles quickly earn the title "lazy" (something I generally disagree with), he was commended for his hustle on the field and between plays. He routinely occupied two blockers during the game. There's the real question of quality of competition, but I think his performance at the Senior Bowl helps somewhat answer that question. He's an under-the-radar prospect who's moving up draft boards and who needs some polish, but I think he's a very serious option in the second round, meaning we could free ourselves up to go a different direction in the first.

So what are the general opinions of him?

[DaCityKats]

i like him as a prospect a lot. i wouldnt mind him in the 2nd at all. he is NT who can push the pocket, and has good feet.

[BigSyke]

yeah i like him too

[carolina-chuck]

Would love him

[Brokenbad]

Who needs him? We have "THE" Colin Cole

[Swaggasaurus]

Good thread. Would have no problems if we took him in 2.

This guy cleans up poop for a living. Im sold! Just dont know about the second round tho.

[JawnyBlaze]

Yea, good thread. I had heard the name a few times up til now, hadn't seen any videos or anything. He's build like a truck. Reminds me of a stouter Michael Brockers. Very little flab for such a big guy. I'd be ok with him in the 2nd, might even be my favorite 2nd round prospect if we don't go DT in the 1st.

This is a fella I am really interested in. He just seems like a machine and there's a lot of good stuff about him circulating around.

Between Williams at DT, Thomas/Bakhtiari at OT, & Patton/Wheaton/etc at WR, we will have a lot to choose from imo for our 2nd rounder methinks.

[Dash Global]

i like him.but would rather go WR or OL in the 2nd

wouldnt be mad though with him or Williams in the 2nd

6'1, 335 lbs., 5.37 40, 1.79 10 yard split, 38 reps, 29.5" vert, 102" broad, 32.58" arms.

[Kuech the Sneak]

I would love him in the second, we need a big athletic NT to help stop the run. Gotta love his work ethic too

[Falcons1stPanthers2nd]

Likely gonna have him in my mock in the 2nd. Been on his bandwagon a while now.
