ILB Dorian Williams: Scouting Report

Williams is fast (4.49 40-yard dash) but undersized at 6-1 and 220 pounds. He’s not your prototypical NFL inside linebacker that can stuff the run. However, Williams has sideline-to-sideline speed with plenty of versatility in pass coverage.

Because of this, Williams will likely be drafted as a depth, situational linebacker and special teams player with upside to evolve into a potential starter in certain defensive schemes.
