But the thing is, he's also a pretty damn good runner in the right setup. I think he'd kill it in SF, for instance. He has good contact balance and great speed. His vision is lacking but if you cut down the number of options he has through scheme, you mitigate that issue somewhat.

And the NFL has become more and more a HR hitters league for RBs, IMO. Truly elite guys can go out there and be productive 5 yards at a time but the middle tiers earn their paychecks via chunk plays.

I kinda hate the idea of getting away from the stuff that has made Williams absolutely dominant in the post-season. A healthy Williams in the right system can be a 1600-1800 all-purpose yard back, IMO. He has those kinds of tools. But the problem is that you just can't tailor an offense to him w/ the kind of health history he has.

Just seems a waste to get away from him.
