Positives:
Roy Williams is one of the best receivers in the 2004 NFL Draft pool and may be the first wide receiver taken overall. He has the size, speed, and athletic ability to be dominant in the NFL. He also possesses big, soft hands, rarely drops a pass, has great body control, and really good ball skills.Williams is the type of receiver that can burn a defense deep or turn a short pass into a big gain. He gets off the line of scrimmage well, and his speed and strength make him tough to bring down in the open field. He also has the agility to adjust to poorly thrown balls, so he tends to help make his quarterback look a little better than he really is. He should give defensive backs nightmares in the NFL.
Negatives:
There's not a whole lot to not like about Williams' game other than the fact that he is a bit of a finesse player and always seems to have some small nagging injury, although none have been serious. If he stays healthy and aggressive at the next level, there is nothing to stop him from being a perennial All-Pro.
Projection:
Roy Williams should be a top-10 pick in the 2004 NFL Draft.
