Saw a recent mock on nfl.com with the Steelers taking Tim Williams at #30. Even though he is a great prospect, I don't see it happening. Thoughts?
Tim Williams???

Could be a monster rushing the passer...
HOWEVER...
Reportedly failed multiple drug tests.
Arrested on a misdemeanor gun charge.
Reportedly struggles with scheme and needs things simplified for him.
He only started 2 games this season, since he is pretty much only a situational pass rusher as opposed to an every down guy.
I'll pass. Too many other edge rush prospects who aren't as one-dimensional and don't carry near as much baggage.Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.
Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.
We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.
We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus. -
Ill pass. And I think so will Colbert. Too many other better prospects down there at not only linebacker but safety and cornerback too.Could be a monster rushing the passer...

That's how I have my mock now...Cunningham seems to be a forgotten guy as pundits drool over Combine times rather than actual game tapes. The draft is deep enough with edge rushers, corners, and safeties that we should be able to find capable ones on Friday night and early Saturday morning.Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

unfortunately, that's the talking heads. i don't see the nfl teams letting him fall that far. i HOPE they do, but, i don't expect it. pre-combine, he had risen to top 15-ish in most mocks. i don't see him being outside of the top 20That's how I have my mock now...Cunningham seems to be a forgotten guy as pundits drool over Combine times rather than actual game tapes.
