I can't disagree more with anybody who thinks that Williamson is on the same level as Williams and Edwards. There's a reason guys like Edwards and Williams dominate in college and guys like Williamson don't. Williamson was a very good WR in college but he wasn't quite at the game changing level. He may end up being good in the NFL but Edwrads and Williams have the best chance of being difference makers. Speed is overrated. If you have size, strength, good route running, good hands, great body control and positioning and a mature attitude then you are far better off than being just a speedster. Ask TO. He may be a punk to some but when it comes to football he has only slightly above average speed. He does run great routes and have great hands. He is the absolute best at getting open in the league and he uses his body adn strength to do it. He is a team leader and works as hard as anybody. His speed offers him little but his size and receiving skills make him a play maker. Williams looks a lot like TO. Edwards looks more like Rice or Fitzgerald. Good at everything.
