Jesse Williams, DT Alabama

| Quote: | University of Alabama defensive tackle Jesse Williams is a very thick prospect with a well-balanced game. He does not have many glaring weaknesses and can contribute both against the run and pass.
Williams is quick in short spaces and really gets after the action. Finds himself in the mix and fights for position until the whistle. Not physically dominant, but he can impose his will on guys if he can get good hand placement. Williams is an average athlete and may not ever grow into anything more than a rotational player. Needs to bring high energy late in games and usually starts far better than he finishes. He'll need to add muscle to his lower half. Strong upper body can overpower defenders with the proper leverage. Must lose baby fat and add more muscle to really push blockers into the backfield.
Good snap anticipation. Still new to the game of football after growing up in Australia. Decent ceiling as he continues to learn the finer techniques. Very good tackler when someone gets in his zone. Really explodes into the ball-carrier and can punish opponents if he has any forward momentum.
Williams projects as a second round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft but could slip a bit due to limited athleticism. |

He's the potential replacement for Branch. I like the pick, surprised Williams lasted so long.

You are absolutely correct. Not bad for a non Sea hawk fan. |

| Watching tape of him, I guess I kind of see why he dropped so far down. Doesn't seem to have NFL level athleticism. Relies on other things I guess to get him by, and that maybe scares some GMs. |

Awesome pick. Jesse is the run stuffer we really needed to come in for rotation.

Picturing him next to big red is just nightmarish

Health issues and he only started 1 year I think would also contribute to his slide.

Great pick.
I thought we might take him in the first. I'm guessing his knee is more serious than people thought.
I really wante him once he fell. Another Good draft!
