Now Jonah Williams should be ready to just step right in and play. Alabama runs a pro ready system.
System in college does make a big difference in how quickly a player adjusts to the NFL. But every college player has a learning curve. College coaches can only work with players a few hours a week a few weeks a year. I'd guess that a full time NFL player spends more time working on football in one year than he does in 4 years of college.
