Dolphins interest in Mike Williams is interesting

T[QUOTE the team brought Williams for a visit at the Davie, FL. training facility on Thursday and spent several hours with him.
Williams is a 6-2, 220-pound prototype from Syracuse University. Well, he was from Syracuse University until he reportedly left the team in November. Those reports, by the way, were the result of Syracuse coach Doug Marrone saying Williams quit the team. So the sourcing cannot be questioned. Williams quit the team according to his coach.[/QUOTE]

Yup sounds like a typical Parcells player.

The truth shall set you free. Only reason they are looking at these guys is for later round values. As a fan you should expect your FO to look under every stone. It's just good due diligence. -
With him, I'd bet he never missed practice and was probably one of the harder workers in practice..strictly speculation on my part..but that is my take on him from what I've read. -

And how many FSU players have been downgraded from the FSU cheating scandal?
A lovely crop this year, pot smokers, cheaters, incestous teenage behaviour. -

One of the more overlooked aspects is that Williams is very close to one part of his family - not sure if it's mum or dad or sister - and that he was just homesick. Which doesn't bode well for the Raiders if they draft him.
I don't think he's a bad kid on any level and he's not a diva. But he's done dumb things that have cost him money. In bringing him to Davie, Jeff and Brian are finding out what makes him tick, how mature he is and what his little foibles are and whether, ultimately, they're manageable.Xeticus, ssmiami, High Definition and 2 others like this. -
I love the way this kid goes after the ball....and I'd be a lot less upset spending a 3rd on a guy like this than Patrick Turner. At least with this kid you know you have a high ceiling as far as talent goes.

I get the feeling we won't double up on WRs two yrs in a row. I was kind of thinking though Williams would be nice as the 2nd choice at the position. Like, if we added Benn, LaFell, etc in the 2nd, then follow it with Williams in the 6th. Not so sure I'd want him to be the entirety of our addressing WR in this draft.

He is a really good WR on the field i would love to have him in miami

#2 Pat White, #3 Pat Turner, #5 John Nalbone, basically the heart of the 09 draft did not perform in 09...so now what?
What to do now? -
it's the #2 and #3 that bother me ..... i believe Nalbone will work out, and we knew from Boom et al, that he was a project - and we liked him so much we used a much higher pick on him than his talent warranted.
what we've learned so far from this regime, that they'll double up in some fashion on a position of need, and that if they do like a player -- i mean really like a player, they will take no risk and make sure they get them.
White and Nalbone were not surprise picks based off of the reporting last year ... what was surprising was where they were picked realizing their capabilities at that time. -
