Shanahan: Williams is a natural for zone-blocking scheme

[vallin21]

I felt if TW went anywhere, we would get the most production out of him, seeing how Shanahan turned Clady into an All-Pro. The kid might not be as motivated as Okung, but I think if the O-line coach can push him and he listens to Samuels he will be a better pro than Okung.

I personally felt that way about a lot of offensive players we were considering including Clausen and Bradford. Okung I felt was one of those few players along with McClain that I think will be successful no matter where they go. I hope that Suh and McCoy develop, as both of them are high character guys but DT's do have a high bust rate.

Very possible. He could be a beast in this scheme.

Ha ha, ummm yeah I totally got that right. But if you makes feel, uh, better, then, uh. Thanks. I didn't realize until afterwards. Ironically though Clady looked HORRIBLE in that highlight film and now he's among the leagues elite tackles. Williams seems like a much more promising prospect.

Alright hopefully I get this one right. It really is amazing though how well he moves:

Don't underestimate the value of Samuels as a mentor for Williams.
