ESPN Insider: Roy Williams 2007 Scouting Report - Scouts Inc.

Yes, he is an excellent blitzer. Put him in a scheme (not Zimmer's) where everyone on the offensive side of the ball doesn't know he's coming then he'll have a chance.


He'll make plays blitzing this year. It's only 2 games in to the new system, give it some time.

so this is a prediction , not a scouting report.

Do you remember his earlier career?
There we go.

This is so true. Many of us were saying 2 or 3 years ago that we were amazed at how high draft picks would come in and have great 1st years and then by reined in by the system and coaches. They could have made average players out of Ray Lewis and Deion Sanders in their prime.

Blitzing by Williams in this D will be an evolution. I've watched Kiel, who started at SS last year in San Diego. They situationally blitzed him at best.
Having a hybrid safety like Williams is an asset that Phillips did not have in San Diego.

I give you a 50 for butchering the english language.

Yes, he is an excellent blitzer.

Maybe I've missed it, but he hasn't even come close to the QB when blitzing this season. No matter who is picking up the blitz, Roy seems to hit an impenetrable wall.
