Burks has some boom or bust. Williams if he hits he is Hill. But even if he doesn't he's a guy who can take the top off a defense. Burks could be Brian RObeskie Edited April 29, 2022 by KL2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched him against that great Georgia defense and he made THAT defense look like they were playing in slow motion the way he blew past them. He may not be Jamarre Chase but he is damn close..assuming no setbacks from his injury which I guess considering it's the Lions we probably shouldn't just assume that. chase is 20 pounds heavier than williams and 2 inches shorter. williams seems more like waddle from last year.

Motown Bombers Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 If the Lions receivers can get healthy, they have Chark and Williams as deep threats with Hockenson and St Brown and a solid #3 in Reynolds. This receiving core has some potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyreke hill has topped 23 mph once, on a kick return. Williams was clocked at 23 mph in college, twice, as a receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.TaterSalad Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Sigh, Kevin Colbert takes Willis, he turns into a stud, and we get another decade plus of a dominate franchise dominating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.TaterSalad Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 OMG!!! They picked Pickett. Well, either way, that means Pickett will be a Hall of Famer now. some franchises are favored by the football Gods and some aren't. Pickett wins at least what, one, possibly two, maybe three Super Bowls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMarsh Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I didn't think Willis would be a fit for PIttsburgh, the Steelers are the type of franchise that don't have the patience to sit and wait 2-3 years for a guy to develop they need to compete every year and need a guy who can come in and play from day 1.

Mr.TaterSalad Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I think the Lions and Giants have had the best 1st round drafts on paper thus far. I trust that Brad Holmes and company did a ton of research on Jameson Williams' medical charts and know that he'll make a full recovery from the ACL injury.
