Obviously if I traded out of the first I would get some high picks for next year, but that wouldn't help as mock games don't deal in next year.

I'd argue you have to have Leonard Fournette as an elite talent over Mike Williams.

(02-07-2017, 04:42 PM)Hammerstripes Wrote: Well, go back and watch some more games of him then.  A player of that size with his speed and power is nearly unheard of.

He can run over people and run away from people.  He is no question an elite talent, but he also doesn't play a premium position in the NFL.

I personally think he's gonna end up injured more than not. I realize he hasn't had any production issuez and would love it if he didn't have any from now on but are u willing to risk it? As I've said before interested to see what docs say

Tell me what is wrong with Allen's shoulders and how it affects his prognosis. Same with Fournette's ankles. Point is you don't know either for both players. 

(02-07-2017, 05:45 PM)ochocincos Wrote: Williams has proven he can get past the neck injury because it happened in early September 2015. He had an entire year to recover. Fournette's ankle problems were plaguing him in 2016 and he still continued to try and play. They may not be as "chronic" as some outlets have been speculating, and it could simply be he kept trying to play on tweaked ankles throughout the season when what he really needed was to give it at least a month or two to heal before trying to play again.

The fact a RB is being discussed at all in the top 10 means he is an elite talent at that position.
Nowadays, a WR being discussed for top 10 isn't nearly as rare as a potential RB in the top 10.
And when it comes to Williams, I think more like Laquon Treadwell or Keenan Allen. Williams has great size, but he's not extremely fast. He is expected to be in the low 4.5's, which is good for a WR his size, but only WRs like AJ Green, Julio Jones, and Sammy Watkins (athletic freaks) deserve to be considered elite talents. Heck, Odell Beckham was a better prospect than Williams is and he didn't get drafted until Pick 13.
Perhaps Williams has the ceiling of Dez Bryant. Bryant isn't the fastest WR (4.52 40), but he uses his size well and can high point the ball to make great catches. If a team considers Williams to become Dez Bryant, a pick in the top 10 of the draft is justified. If he's more like Treadwell or Keenan Allen, that's not worth a top 10 selection.

Bottom line is I think Fournette is a more elite talent than Williams.
