Third overall at DT you're hoping for a Bruce Smith type player.
"Hello good sir GM, may we pretty please have your throwaway centers and gords please??!? I'll suck yo'dick!"
There's no indication he won't turn into an impact player. It's still early.
There's absolutely indications. But that's all they are is indications
"Indications"
Rich CiminiQuinnen Williams over the last four games: 148 snaps, 4 tackles, 0 sacks, 2 QB hits, 1 TFL. How’s Ed Oliver doing? #Jets9:19AM EST
Lets play a fun game...By looking at the first 9 games of each players career, which player is the all-star and which player is the bust?Hint 1: Player 1 is Ed Oliver, Player 2 is Quinnen Williams.Hint 2: We don't know because each player hasn't even played 1 season yet!Hint 3: We shouldn't judge a players future success while they are on a hot streak.
Ban MJ.
Kind of a convenient sample size considering Oliver has four sacks in his last 3.
My point is, that its convenient to judge him based off his most recent 4 game streak. Oliver has played 11 games in his career, Quinnen has played in 8. This rate of play will not keep up and things will revert back to the norm.
But what if this is the norm for Oliver? Obviously he's not going to keep the pace of a sack a game. But this is a guy everyone thought could be an 8-10 sack type of guy coming out of college.
And what if Quinnen pulls in 4 sacks in 3 games? Its stupid to judge a player while on a hot streak. Quinnen is generating pressure against the run and pass, he just needs to finish more plays. Lets see where he is after 16-20 games before we call him a bust.
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well
What makes me nervous about Q is that he isn't doing much on a team where Greg Williams is making players like Nate Shepherd and Neville Hewitt look like decent fill-ins for starters.I'm in the camp of "it's way too early" but I'm definitely concerned we have another Leo Williams on our hands.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.
