Mike Williams to the Titans

Titans sign former USC star WR Mike Williams (http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8046b8a6&template=with-video&confirm=true)

This is a great pick up for the Titans, he has a real shot at becoming an actual star there due to lack of realistic options. I think we all forget that he had 30 tds in 2 seasons at USC including 176 catches and 2579 rec yards. All that done in only 26 games.

I am a little surprised we picked up Mix instead of the 6'5" Williams. Williams has a history of greatness.

History of greatness? Where? At USC?

Mike Williams is slow as molasses. Maybe he could pass as a tight end?


You're right on, Zimm. A lot, well, some scouts are projecting him as a TE now, not really a WR.

Aside from below average speed, the big knock on Williams is a poor work ethic - perhaps reuniting with Norm Chow will wake him. That said, he failed in a pretty good situation in Detroit with Roy Williams drawing the toughest defenders.

I wonder how cheap they got him for. I wouldnt have minded us picking him up to help us around the goal line.

Lane Kiffin was his position coach at USC and recently his coach in Oakland--and he gave up on him. He also implied, I am paraphrasing here, that Williams lost his motivation after getting his fat contract from Detroit. A player without the passion to play is the kiss of death IMO...

Yes, exactly.
Sure he has done nothing in the pros thus far, but neither has Mix and we're already crowning his ass.

I know a lot of people on here wanted us to draft him,glad we didnt

My sentiments exactly. Not quite sure where this history of greatness comes from. Yes he had some great raw talent at USC.... he hasn't shown anything at the pro level. VERY HAPPY we did not draft him. All off you who made a big deal out of the fact that we didn't draft him (You know who you are) should make a note of this and give the Skins personel dept some props.

Mort at ESPN reported that Mike Williams arrived at the Titans facility weighing 271 pounds. Anyone still wonder why people question his work ethic? When was the last time someone heard of a 271 pound wideout?
