Not a bad thing at all but, Williams,on the other hand, is a lot more mobile and fits to scheme perfectly.

I totally disagree with picking for the system, at least early in the draft and when there's a substantial difference in talent (which I think there is).

If you ran the Tampa 2 would you pass on Deion Sanders because he didn't fit the prototype or would you take the talent and find a way to make the potential work?
