If M. Williams is ruled out of draft, does Washington benefit?

Please stop judging football players only on the 40 yard dash times and work out numbers. Being fast in the 40 does not make you a great WR or football player. It helps, but you must remember they are playing football not track and field.
Michael Irvin (in his prime), Keyshawn Johnson and Terrell Owens are not going to break anything less than 4.6 or 4.7 in the 40 and they are/were all great Probowl WR's.
There are big possesion WR's and there are speed WR's. Williams is a possesion WR.

Just like being 6' 5" and 250 plus lbs. does not make you a great blocking Tight end.
Making Williams an H-back is not going to work and it would be waste of his god given talent. The jump from blocking defensive backs in college to blocking Linebackers and defensive ends in the NFL is a big jump. Most good college TE's have a tough time adjusting to being good blockers in the NFL. It takes them years to adjust For a WR to do it is just not going to happen.
