Thats not bad when you consider who he has had to go up against this season. 8 sacks allowed isn't all-pro but he's not a 'placeholder' this is his first full season you are acting like he's 32 he's 24. An OL prime is late 20s.
He's obviously not the weakest link but he is a part of a Bottom 5 line in the NFL. That's a fact. I wouldn't look too closely at any of their numbers as individuals; they've all struggled at different points this season. Also, I wouldn't overstate the importance of blindside protectors anymore. They're not as crucial as they used to be, what with D-lines and schemes more variable than they've ever been.
Don't get me wrong, I don't mind Jonah Williams. But he's not cream of the crop. The line is fundamentally flawed and he's been the only consistent piece. And I stand by the fact that he's not a project. He didn't come in off a mediocre college team and get swung to the other side, if not another position (i.e. D'Ante Smith). Williams played three solid years at an elite school. I'd say his skillset's pretty polished, for better or worse. He won't reinvent himself at this point.
You said Top 10. I just said he won't get there. We'll see.
