Looking forward to the day we have healthy Tua out there throwing to healthy DVP, Preston, Albert, and Gesicki!!

Nitpicking here but Williams ran a 4.66, while Im not sure both his injuries were on the same knee, I'd be surprised if he still ran a 4.66 after those 2 surgeries. The guy is explosive and has a good catch radius but speed is borderline NFL at this point IMO...Fairly big deal if he comes back 100% and continues to grow and hangs onto the ball, dude has serious potential not many 6"5" guy's that run 4.5 and have the route running ability of a 6 footer with the leaping ability of Parker, having Parker, Williams and Gisicki all on the field at the same time moves our receiving skill from a C to B+/A- better than what most would give the Dolphins credit for when evaluating.
Not argueing, but where did you get 4.66?Nitpicking here but Williams ran a 4.66, while Im not sure both his injuries were on the same knee, I'd be surprised if he still ran a 4.66 after those 2 surgeries.

This was the 1st one I checked. (first time I even know the existence of this website, was the first on the results)Not argueing, but where did you get 4.66?
His CO St. Pro day lists him at 4.55. Huge difference in the two.
That’s nice but I don’t expect much out of him this year. Wasn’t a speed burner to begin and he’ll be nursing it along trying to find his way again. I hope I’m wrong

Here's what I mean. Without even getting an accurate number on his actual 40, we can still get an idea of his actual NFL speed when comparing some things with other NFL WRs. Which is my point anyway, when talking about speed alone, Preston is borderline NFL.His pro day was a 4.55.

Williams was on pace for about 65 catches, 850 yds and 6 TDs. He was hardly "Moss'ing" up defenses. Parker definitely benefited once Williams was out, but he also benefited from Fitz's play the last month of the year. DVP was a beast the second half of the year. I like Williams a lot, but he's raw and he definitely needs to overcome his case of the drops. And I think he will.Awesome. Dude was straight up Moss'ing defenses last year. I'm going to predict 1200+yards and 11 tds this year.

I'm sure after Williams went out last year that it helped Parker put up the numbers he did, but Fitz

Preston Williams will do alot of good things on 3rd downs and in the redzone and there's alot of value in that, but he's limited.
- Average separation: 2.1 - Only 4 WRs(with more than 43 targets) in the NFL were worst. Devante Parker has the exact same number, 2.1. So Fins #1 and #2 WRs arent particularely great at getting separation, they're bottom of the league at it.
- YAC/R: 2.4 - Again, only 4 WRs in the NFL were worst.
- Average cushion: 4.5 - Only 2 WRs in the NFL had it worst.
To be fair, my first words in this thread were "Nitpicking here...". But regardless, I dont really like the makeup of the Fins top 2 receivers in Williams and Parker, I dont think they complement each other very well, at least not when catching passes from an accurate QB... They're perfect for Fitz though...Not to be difficult...but who's taking about speed alone when it comes to Preston Williams? He's a physical monster that's going to give your average CB fits because of his height and body type.
