Tim Williams is a bit of a grey area on this one. On the one hand, I'm not overwhelmed with confidence in our coaching staff keeping him on the straight and narrow. I think it's been proven with guys whether it be Landry, DQ Jackson, Art Jones, etc getting busted for PED's that there's not some sense of accountability in that locker room.

On the other hand, he does strike me as somebody that has the size and speed and playing style of somebody that would be a plug-and-play in the NFL. Now, granted he has to get on the field, and it's entirely possible he's the next Randy Gregory that, who knows if he's any good, as he's never on the field.

Like I said, I'm split on him, but I think would take my chances on a guy like him, rather than a guy like Takk McKinley, who our coaching staff would have to develop from a talent perspective.
