Re: Welcome to BMORE Tim Williams
Serious answer,
It's an opinion just like you, everyone has one. I love the Ravens just like you, and want to see success just like you. Drinking purple coolaid is not something I do, I'm realistic.
I see a lot of sky high expectations...I've been disappointed well enough to know NOT every player drafted is a star.
I'm also noticing a lot of people trying to justify the player with "film study" after the fact.
I am simply stating that I do not have sky high expectations of Tim Williams. (like many of you)
Reasons:
1. Part time player
2. One dimensional
3. Reports are he struggled to pick up the playbook at Alabama (that is pro style defense, so I expect the same issues here)
4. first and foremost this is the biggie for me, off-fied issues, enough for every team to pass on him 2-3 times.
--> I believe he is trending the same direction as McClain.
5. I think there were better players available, namely Chris Godwin (bigger impact to this team, good production)
bottom line I actually mocked Tim Williams to the Ravens previous to the draft on one occasion, just think that after all said and done he is a high Bust potential.

His bust potential is off the field. I don't know how high that is as we do not get all the details. Ray Lewis would certainly had high bust potential if he was coming out in today's world of constant information.
As far as part time players go, part time pass rusher is one where he could be very successful while being a part time player. You have to look no further than Doom as an example. The league has become so pass happy that he will be on the field a ton as a pass rusher.
I was listening to Pat Kirwin on NFL radio and he talked a little bit about how every Alabama player he spoke to held Williams in the highest regards and gushed about him.
Williams fills the biggest need on the team which is pass rusher. We did not have anyone who can get to the QB.

Re: Welcome to BMORE Tim Williams
Drinking purple koolaid and discussing players upside are not the same thing.
This board is pretty balanced. Some more positive, some more negative and that's fine. That's exactly why people are entitled to their opinion.
I think it's just straight up stupid to say it's all hype when discussing upside. Literally no point in having a discussion if that's the response."Cause if you ain’t pissed off for greatness, that just means you’re okay with being mediocre, and ain’t no man in here okay with just basic.”
