I did and stand by it. Dan Williams is a better NFL prospect right now than Mahelona ever was. Didn't Mahelona measure in even shorter than 6'1" at the combine?

Actually, yes. The Falcons list him as 6'0. Wow. That's really short for an NFL DT. That's really short for being 311 lbs also.

I know, I was just adding to the whole discussion and I just happened to respond to your post. With that being said, Dan Williams is a better pro prospect than Mahelona.

I hope he is as good as all of those guys but I'm not sure what he has done at this point to make anyone think he will be.

Right now Dan Williams is on the same path as John Henderson, so lets not speak too soon. "Big John" had a rough start at UT after thinking he was invincible at Pearl Cohn.... Not saying Williams will have as good of a JR year as Henderson did, but if Henderson can become the elite DT in his JR year, then why not Williams? Lets hope he does and makes the same decision as Henderson to come back!!! also, I'm just curious, when was Henderson drafted? what overall number?

Why is grammar so important to you on this message board? Do you really not know what he was saying or just wanted to point out his use of slang?

He was our best D-lineman by far last year. He has all the measurables and plays big when needed. What about him to this point leads you to believe that he won't be an impact guy? He made a huge impact last year as a backup! Without Williams, we don't even go to the SECC.

I am expecting big things out of Dan Williams this year. I also think Bolden will be solid. My biggest concern is debt.
