    i'm hoping for either Mauti, Poyer, or Thomas, which will probably mean they pick a TE or something.

    Vince Williams ILB

    Aggressive run defender who isn't afraid to attack the ball. Generally a reliable open-field tackler and flashes an explosive pop. Plays the game angry, showing some nastiness as a tackler. A step slow in diagnosing the action. Rob Rang

    2011: 54 tackles, 5 TFLs, 2 sacks, 1 INT, 3 PBUs
    2012: 59 tackles, 6.5 TFLs, 1 sack, 1 FR, 2 PBUs
    2013 Senior Bowl

    Missed all of 2009 season with back injury

    Some notes from Optimum Scouting:

    Physical, grinding, high motor linebacker...shows no fear in taking on lead blockers or uncovered guard, showcasing tremendous pop in his hands...He plays the game with a violent edge...in the same way he approaches blockers aggressively, Williams approaches ball carriers recklessly...Despite landing hits high and rarely landing a clean hit, Williams creates noticeable snap on contact and stuns opponents with his explosive hitting power.

    Quick little story about him and the only thing i know about him is when they played florida a florida player hit a fsu corner late. Next play the ballcarrier ran right and williams made a beeline for the olineman who hit his teammate late and blew him up. It was legal and it was badass. Ilove him. I just didnt know if he was good enough to draft

    Bad choice in Williams. At this point they must go BPA.... Poyer maybe?

    Williams will not make our PS!!

    Sylvester stevenson's job is safe for another year...... Crap!!!

    Seems like a logical conclusion to me. It was a reach, esp. considering there are higher needs and BPAs.

    i actually know a player is... what?

    i saw him around campus a few times, he's good people. he was the heart, soul, and guts of the Penn State defense. even if he does nothing in the pros, i'm a fan.

    at least he gets to join Hodges.
