I dont think he will be a complete bust, but i don't think Mike Williams will be a great receiver in the NFL. I think he will prove to be the 6th or 7th best receiver in the draft.

Big Ben, possible Big Bust

Ben has the atheletic potential to be great, but atheletic ability ability alone doesn't make the player. He could be a huge bust, Akli Smith might have had the best atheletic ability out of his QB class.

Yes I have seen him play many times including twice in person. I think he will be a very solid receiver but not worthy of a top 3 selection. I just think that his lack of speed (which I know is not horrible), I dont dont think he runs great routes, and he had incredible QBs throwing to him in an incredible offensive system. Now I am not saying he wont be good but I just think his people put too much emphasis on his size and I dont think that besides that he has anything else that is incredible other than his hands.

I can see some of that but if you look at a guy like Owens, he's now any faster and he's been pretty good. Rice wasn't much faster. There are always guys like Harrison and Holt who are clearly faster, but then you find a guy like Quan who's no faster than MW. Mike is 2-3 inches taller than most of those guys, outweighs most of them, and is stronger than most of them. Not saying he'll be better than Rice, but the only knock on him is speed and there's a LOT of precedent for non burners to succeed.

As for the incredible QB's, again, Palmer was a major disappointment until MW arrived on campus, Leinart was a one year player until Booty was ready, it's just as easy to argue HE made them look good as the other way around.
