I would like to see this kid taken by the Texans with a 6th or 7th round pick or as a UFA. Williams can help as a returner and a change of pace rb with hands very fast kid. (4.34 forty time) Ht 5"8 Wt 196
STRENGTHS: Possesses a short, compact frame. Takes quick, choppy steps which give him great lateral agility and burst. Savvy runner who varies his gait, lulling defenders with one speed before showing a quick burst to break into the open field. Very good vision to recognize cut back lanes and make use of downfield blockers.
Possesses excellent ball skills. Secures passes quickly with his hands, showing the ability to easily adjust his body to make tough catches and still maintain forward momentum. Used on a variety of routes out of the backfield for USU, as well as lined up out of the slot and even outside.
Experienced kick and punt returner with the secure hands and elusiveness to maintain this role in the NFL.
WEAKNESSES: Obvious size limitations. Only logged one season (2012) with more than 81 carries so durability has to be a concern despite the fact that Williams never missed a collegiate game due to injury.
Too often goes down to first contact, showing little power to bounce off tackles. Relies on his ability to make defenders miss.
Willing and cognizant blocker, but size limitations are especially evident in pass protection where he offers little more than a speed bump to oncoming defenders.
Has excellent agility and acceleration but does not appear to have legitimate breakaway speed to pull away in the open field. Despite his gaudy return totals has only one kick return for a touchdown over his career (92 yards at Nevada, 2011) despite breaking into the open on multiple occasions.
Kerwynn Williams was named to CBS Sports' all-Bowl team for his big performance against Toledo in December. He'll be playing in the East-West Shrine Game next weekend.
