Preston Williams - WR - Colorado St (possible 2019)

TheNef77 · 2018-01-02T01:08:45-08:00

5 star recruit that transferred from Tennessee to CSU. The rule required him to sit out this year. Earned a couple starts at Tenn as a true fresh. Scouts had him ranked higher than Kirk and Ridley coming out of high school. Barely any film on him so just someone you might want to keep an eye on. His HS film looks nice but it's high school so take what you want from that.

So this kid's upside is all there...he's playing on a crap team and producing stupid numbers.

6-4 210 great speed. I think he needs to catch with his hands more and route-running isn't on the Ridley level, but he's worth a look for sure.

He had 12 catches 248 yards 3 TDs.....yesterday.

Oops @collinhill15 and Preston Williams did it again

One of his biggest traits is his catch radius. I mean look at this, insane catch. His long frame does him wonders there, he just needs to use it better. pic.twitter.com/ABAqwlZ7Gq

Some pre-draft visits: #Oregon edge Justin Hollins is headed to the #Broncos now for a visit, I'm told. ... #NotreDame DL Jerry Tillery is visiting the #Titans on a 30 visit. They pick No. 19. ... #ColoradoSt WR Preston Williams is visiting with the #49ers today and tomorrow.

Coached by Alvis Whitted (now with Packers). He's a terrific receivers coach. He's got that going for him.

Didn't he put up subpar numbers at his pro-day?

It was pretty average to bad numbers for sure. But his tape is impressive and that holds more weight. But as you alluded to would we bring in another player with a domestic violence background. He apparently pushing a girlfriend but it was dropped and he pled guilty to harassment I believe. For those who don't wanna look it up.

Yeah I mean I'm all for 2nd chances I haven't watched much of him outside of a couple clips.

Where's his stock at! Low day 3 I'm thinking ?

Might be looking at him as a late round flyer but yeah his off the field issues are pretty severe.

I've heard he's been killing it for the Dolphins in OTAs. Not really surprising cause he is a damn good receiver if he can stay out of trouble off the field the Dolphins might have got a really good player.
