    I think this kid is going to be a star.

    From Rotoworld.com
    DeAngelo Williams ran an official 4.38 forty at his pro day.
    On a hard, slippery Memphis track, Williams ran a 4.42 into the wind and was timed as fast as 4.36. The former Tigers' star has been on the rise since a marvelous showing at the Senior Bowl and his fast forty time will only help his stock. Mar. 25 - 12:01 pm et

    I love this kid.. If I recall correctly, as an absolute WORKHORSE of a back at Memphis, without a lot of surrounding talent, he averaged over 6 YPC... That is insane.. If we trade down, or are lucky enough to have him fall into our laps at 29, we HAVE TO take him... He will be a great one..

    I am very suprised with his forty time. It was necessary he ran in the 4.4 area if he wanted to be picked in the first half of the first round...now I think he is a lock for the top 15...

    if that 4.3 is true.. i would say he is a lock for the top 10. The world already knows he is productive.

    He is good and I would love him to be a Jet. I have looked at tape of him and Bush. Unfortunately, he is not even on the same planet as Bush. But, we are not getting Bush so he may be the next best thing.

    I am not putting DeAngelo down (he is good), but there is a huge difference between him and Bush.

    Is anyone saying he is as good as Bush? I'm not and I'd much rather have Bush, but do you think he could still be a star in the NFL? I have only seen clips of him.

    DeAngelo is going to be a great NFL RB. He is the complete package, and his lack of height is overrated (as long as you're not 5'5 or 5'6, you'll be fine.)

    It works for me I like his avatar. I will get back to the DeAngelo after I read up on him 4.3 speed we need to take him at #4 f**k the oline get Mangold at #29 and the next best guy aviable at #35 but if he is running a 4.48 forget we already have a power back
