Ya but what Baylor WR have turned out great? Josh Gordon?, Kendall Wright? USC has produce crappy WR and HOF WR soit goes both ways.
I just don't care at all for Williams choice to fall down on every play. He can't seem to break away in the open field, everyone catches up, NO YAC. I do like him a lot and would love to have him on the team but I take Woods over Williams. Woods fights for extra yards, which we need.

Almost every play Woods is breaking tackles, he is not scared.
1. Every time you type "Ya" I feel like I'm in the movie Fargo, or simply like I'm back home in Minny. Loving that.
2. I admit to having a deep bias against USC. I was a huge Longhorn fan when they beat USC in the Rose bowl for the national title. I pretty much hate USC.
3. Woods, honestly, looks solid. His speed might be suspect, but it looks to me like he has enough talent to make that a moot point. The couple of USC games that I watched this season I remember that the other receiver (Marquis Lee) was much more impressive. Like Tennessee, though, USC has an abundance of talent at the position, which can make it difficult to judge the relative merit of any one WR of the group. No single one stands out.
4. I still like Williams a lot after watching the video you posted. In fact, I like him more! We already have YAC guys--once Percy's signed we have the best one in the league. We could use Williams' talents. He gets beyond DB coverage, in the end zone or on the sideline, and makes difficult catches look easy. He doesn't NEED to break tackles because he's already scored a TD or made a diving catch or caught a difficult ball on the sideline. I see him as a great compliment to PH, Jarius Wright and Rudolph.
5. One WR I hope the Vikes consider later (rounds 4-7) is TCU's Josh Boyce. Even w/ the loss of starting QB Casey Pachall this year he had solid production. Boykin, the freshman QB that came in for Pachall, wasn't much of a thrower initially, otherwise Boyce's #s would have been even better. Boyce is deceptively fast, sure-handed, and as you can see very, very strong.
