DLF: Williams built up a lot of steam by impressing a lot of scouts and draft analysts during Senior Bowl Week. His combine performance was a letdown as he ran slower than expected and he displayed sub optimal agility during his three cone testing. He’s still a very interesting prospect with rock solid collegiate production and his tape makes him a favorite amongst a lot of draft analysts.

NFL Analysis: A decisive, downhill runner, Williams is likely to have plenty of fans heading into the draft. A subpar combine likely guarantees he'll see his name called on Day 3, but we've seen effective runners come from that range in the past. Williams' running style will require the right offense, likely a zone-blocking team, for him to find fantasy value. He's great at picking up what's blocked and fighting for extra yards after contact, but struggles to create on his own with agility/quickness and too often seems to seek out contact at the second level. Williams will be worth a late-round pick in dynasty rookie drafts, but not much else to start his career unless the stars align for his fantasy outlook

DRAFT ANALYSIS: Was there a more obvious mid-round pick at RB to anyone who's been hearing Daniel Jeremiah's James Starks comparisons? Williams brings the toughness and instincts between the tackles the Packers lacked in their run game last season. --Mark Dulgerian
