Instincts: Quick off the ball; routinely beats linemen inside a snap. Fires from hips upon engaging, activating power. Relentless in pursuit from the backside; film of him chasing down running back in the open field.

Polish: Plays with consistently-low base. Advanced arm and hand fighter while shedding and anchoring. Raw getting after the quarterback, mostly relying on power and quickness to inside; must add and diversify pass-rush moves.

Bottom Line: Williams is a stout, powerful defensive tackle with impressive movement ability in the open field. He must gain weight and continue improving his technique but has makings of penetrating three-technique at the next level. Potential multi-year starter.
