Jameson Williams, NFL Rookie WR Prospect
Our thoughts on 2022 NFL rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams.
Measurables:
6'1" 180 lbs
21.09 years old
32 1/8" arms, 9 1/4" hands, 76 5/8" wingspan
No workout at the Combine or Pro Day due to left knee injury (ACL tear)
"Jameson Williams could be really special as a downfield weapon."
Strengths:
Track sprinter with elite speed.
Beats press with quick feet then explodes up-field.
Excellent body control to make adjustments mid-air.
Long, fluid strides help him track the ball and adjust downfield.
Jameson possesses some deceptive power in his legs through contact.
Twitchy lower legs help to force missed tackles.
Accumulated 279 special teams snaps and nine tackles.
Ten returns for 352 yards and two touchdowns.
Only the 3rd player in Alabama history to reach 1500 yards in a season.
One of 3 players in FBS last season to reach 1500 yards and 15 TDs.
Weaknesses:
Skinny, thin frame, needs to add some bulk.
Williams catches with his body and wrists at times.
Six drops and two fumbles in 2021 while holding the ball loose & away from his body.
One season of production after sitting behind Olave & Wilson at Ohio State.
Most of his great performances were against lower-level competition.
Limited as a blocker; needs to improve play strength.
Jameson tore his left ACL in the title game.
Drunk Thoughts
Only a one-year starter at Alabama after sitting behind Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson at Ohio State, Williams played the Z receiver role while receiving passes from a Heisman Trophy winner in Bryce Young. Jameson made a massive impact in his short time with the Crimson Tide, becoming the 3rd player in school history to catch for 1500 receiving yards in a season. Williams is currently rehabbing that left ACL injury, but when healthy has the elite speed to stretch the field and the instincts to be a home run threat. He should go in the top half of the 1st round of the 2022 NFL Draft and could be exceptional as a downfield weapon.
