what do u like more in mike?
Mike over Braylon??
Firstly, size. I know fans of Edwards will come and say that Braylon is only an inch shorter and around 8lbs lighter... but Mike Williams is so thick, he has a very mature body, much like Ronnie Brown. That gives him a huge advantage.
Hands. Mike Williams WILL catch eveything thrown his way and that is what AJ really needs. His hands are like velcro. Braylon has made some spectacular catches but he does seem to struggle going down to makes catches, and I've seen him drop a fair few that have hit him right between the numbers.
Speed... Braylon definitely has the edge, but... The 40 is overated, 0.15 seconds is the difference, apparently that 0.15 seconds makes Edwards quick and Mike Williams slow, hmm... It doesn't matter because if our Oline doesn't improve then Feeley will be sacked by the time that Edwards gets downfield.
Effectiveness. Mike is a legit #1 WR, he needs to be double covered. That is going to leave either Booker, Randy or CC in single coverage... if they double team all of them then that leaves 3 guys up against our Oline and RB. Mike Williams will open up our offense so much its scary. Braylon would have a similar effect, but I can see Mike really screwing with a D.
On top of that there are little minor things... he's a local boy, a winner - national champion. Has proven that he can work hard, he hasn't played football for a year but has got faster and kept his weight under control.
Basically... he can jump over every DB in the league and will catch everything thrown his way. I've seen a lot of negative comparisons to Keyshawn, but look at the numbers that Keyshawn has put up, and I think Mike's will be even better.
