CEDRIC WILLIAMS
Position: OG
Class: Sr
School: South Carolina
Conference: SEC
Ht., Wt.: 6'2, 300
40 Time: 5.35
Grade: 3.41

BIO: Former defensive lineman who moved to offense as a red-shirt freshman and has been a fixture in the starting lineup ever since. First-team All-Conference choice as a junior. Suffered with a problematic ankle injury the past two seasons.

POSITIVES: Nasty, hard working blocker who stays with the action. Built low to the ground, gets underneath opponents and gives top effort until the whistle blows. Stays with the action, jolts opponents with his hands then turns them off the line. Looks for someone to hit and gets involved in the action.

NEGATIVES: Lacks the dominant base or ability to drive defenders from the line of scrimmage. Marginal movement skills and not effective on the second level.

ANALYSIS: Grades out highly when it comes to effort but a marginal athlete with minimal growth potential and possibilities at the next level.

PROJECTION: Early Seventh Round
