Brandon Williams #2 TE?

So I see there is a lot of interest in Brandon Williams. From what I have witnessed, I think his stock is rising. He has shown really good hands and has caught most things that has come his way. But as a #2 TE the question also is how is his blocking skills.

 

So here are a couple of pics and how he did today 1 on 1 versus two quality linebackers.

 

First up, Senn.

Senn didn't have much progress as all versus Williams. Once Brandon got his mits on Senn's numbers, it was over. There was no way Senn was going to power over him. Advantage - Williams.

 

Next was Jason Williams

Jason tried a spin move, and again was shut down by Brandon. Brandon stuck with Jason the entire way, keeping him out of range of the QB.

So considering this guy has been completely out of football for a while, only playing basketball, I think what he has shown on the field to be pretty remarkable. He is at the very least holding his own against legit NFL defensive players. Imagine a year from now!

Good news. We need another talented TE to pair with Olsen, and no I'm not talking about Hartsock.

Am I the only one blown away by his physical presence?

No you are not. I want to see him stiff arming scrubs to the turf.

But in all seriousness, I really hope this guy succeeds. Of all the camp guys the huddle has loved over measurables/potential (the Lamont Bryants, the Bruce Campbells, etc.) I think Williams has the best chance to succeed.

Great story, and he appears to have an excellent work ethic, and appreciation of education. 

 

Every one marvels at his body, strength and athletic ability. 

 

I hope he makes the team, stays health and is a contributor. 

 

He should only get better, as he gets more experience, in shape, and the system piece down. 

 

Good Luck Brandon!

Am I the only one blown away by his physical presence? Dude is one of the most ripped and massive football players I have seen. If this is Williams rusty and just getting back into football, we best keep him on board and let him reach that ceiling of his. Dude could be great if he stays healthy. Match-up nightmare.

 

Of course, not. Lol

      I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.

      QB School - Bryce Young vs Bucs

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
