Popeye Williams

Twitchy edge-rusher with some explosive qualities. Seems very well schooled also. He has a subtle dip which makes it tough for offensive linemen to get a clean punch on him. His lateral agility also makes it tough for blockers to get their hands on him in pass protection. He does a nice job with his hands. He is quick and assertive with those. He shows good closing ability shot short-area explosion as well. He plays with good motor. The main concern with him would be size. He is over 6-foot-2 and around 225 pounds. He will have to show he can anchor in against the run against bigger college offensive linemen. He is a really good player and has some good athletic qualities. He is going to be able to rush the passer and based on his technique and work ethic, has a great chance to be more than that. 4-3 WDE or may be a 3-4 OLB.
