Williams, who has 10.5 sacks during the last 11 games despite being only a situational pass rusher, said he got a late first or early second round grade from the NFL Draft Advisory Committee... Saban "strongly advised" Williams to return to school. Saban and others have told Williams how much it would benefit him to stay for his senior season and show that he can be a productive every down player... Maybe we celebrated his return too early!! :( Title: Re: "Alabama LB Tim Williams got favorable draft grade, still considering turning pro" Post by: bamaphil on January 10, 2016, 06:41:22 AM Quote But Williams said Saturday that he's undecided on whether to stay in school or turn pro.

Hopefully the coaches can convince him to come back and work for high 1st round money next year.

And how good is Williams without the defensive push of A'Shawn et al.? :popcorn2: Title: Re: "Alabama LB Tim Williams got favorable draft grade, still considering turning pro" Post by: bamaphil on January 10, 2016, 06:58:41 AM I haven't seen any of the mock drafts with him going in the first round. Not that they ever come close to getting things right, but I just don't think he yet has the name recognition or resume to warrant leaving this year. But the advisory comes the NFL, not an agent blowing smoke up his posterior.

The mock draft comes closer to getting it right than the advisory board does. It would be interesting to see how many 1st round evaluations they gave out.
