NFL Draft The WR I wanted us to draft

Rookie receiver rises to the top of the Bucs' depth chart

SYRACUSE.JPGThe Tampa Bay Buccaneers devoted two draft picks to one of its weakest positions on the roster -- wide receiver.

In the second round, the Bucs bagged Arrelious Benn. Two rounds later, they reeled in Mike Williams, who ended up being a lemon for the Syracuse orange.

So far in Tampa, Williams has turned past puckers into nods of approval. Per the folks at PewterReport.com, coach Raheem Morris said Sunday that the rookie currently is the top receiver on the team.

"He has been working at the X position with the ones," Morris said. "He has been out there a lot of the time . . . and Mike Williams had a dynamic offseason. He has come in and done everything we have asked. He has been one of the guys that has caught the ball, stood out and has been standing out since he has been here."

Whether Williams can hold it together remains to be seen. He ultimately quit the team in college, and he was privately criticized for being "horrible in interviews" at the Scouting Combine, "blaming everyone but himself for his problems at Syracuse."

Benn and Williams are the WR's I wanted us to draft the most... I thought Mike would have been a major steel.

I've always liked Benn. He was one of my guys that I thoroughly scouted throughout his career at Illinois.

Benn never should have went to school there. IMO, it hurt him. We shall see now. As far as Williams, taking hm might make you look like a genius, or a fool.

I don't like Williams off the field nearly as much as I do on the field.

Benn was seriously underrated b/c his QB was Juice Williams.

Freeman has got some serious weapons to work with:

Winslow, Benn, Williams (perhaps, I'm iffy on this one), and Reggie Brown and Clayton are serviceable players.

Donald Penn is an extremely underrated tackle, too.

I'm really hoping the Chiefs draft one of this year's Big 4 WR's next April. I'd prefer Julio if AJ Green if off the board. Julio is being compared to TO, and he does look just like him on the field.
