Eddie Williams SELECTED BY: Redskins Round 7 (12)

SI Grade 3.02 GRADING SYSTEM

BIOGRAPHY: Two-year starter awarded all-Conference honors as a senior after leading Idaho in receiving with totals of 54/687/6. Junior totals included 29/363/3.

POSITIVES: Quick and explosive pass catcher who consistently makes plays in the secondary. Immediately gets off the line into routes, displays terrific concentration, and possesses a lot of natural receiving skills. Adjusts well to the errant throw, looks the pass into his hands and makes the reception in stride. Runs well and plays faster than his forty time. Displays tremendous vision as a blocker or pass catcher, and consistently finds the open space in the defense. Smashes opponents and works hard to finish blocks.

NEGATIVES: Possesses a thin build and just average strength as a blocker. Struggles to handle opposing linebackers.

ANALYSIS: Williams has displayed terrific progress the past two seasons, and he has shown himself to be an offensive threat as well as a willing blocker. His build and body type may necessitate a switch from his college position of tight end to fullback at the next level. He offers potential in a West Coast system that takes advantage of his quickness, movement skills, and intelligent play.

PROJECTION: Free Agent
