375 is where they want to get him down to.
As per Vinny's presser the other day yes he's over 400 folks for the 100th time. He's going to be working on conditioning for the next month to get him down.
Quote:
"When we signed Mike Williams [on Friday] and the way he looked at the workout," he said, "that kinda helped that. Where we were picking there really weren't -- it really wasn't a deep draft for offensive linemen. For guards it was not a very good draft. There were good centers, but they all went late first round and we didn't have a second round pick. When we got to the third round with [Kevin Barnes], that was the highest rated guy we had on the board. That's why we went that direction. There really wasn't an offensive lineman at that spot."
On how much Mike Williams is expected to participate in minicamp:
"We used to have Bubba Paris and other guys like that in San Francisco. What we are going to do with Mike is, for this first month he will just work with the strength coaches and the rehab guys, work on conditioning and work on some drill work with [Joe Bugel] to get ready for June OTAs."
On how the Redskins decided to work out Williams:
"He's been living over at Derrick Dockery's house. [Derrick] told me about him and said 'Will you contact him?' We said we wanted to bring him over and work out before the Draft and see what he looked like so it may help us decide when we're in the Draft what we're gonna do.
"He came over on Friday, worked out, took a physical and signed a minimum contract deal. When you get past the point in the Draft where you don't feel like there is a starting guy there, then we just went to other positions."
On why Mike Williams was not successful in Buffalo:
"I don't know. I'm not sure why it didn't work. We're giving him the opportunity and putting him in the mix with our guys, put him in the mix at right tackle."
On why the Redskins did not take an offensive lineman in the Draft:
"Stephon [Heyer] is doing a great job. Now it's time for [Chad] Rinehart, Devin Clark and some of the guys from last year that we've been training for a year to step up."
After Day 2, Vinny Cerrato Still Seems Happy
