His high point, pass catching skills at the end of the 40 yards run is his special skill. He has demonstrated that a number of times. Have not seen a cover guy yet that could out play him.

I had a feeling new New England was gonna be interested in JL... I said it a few weeks ago. He would thrive in that offense though.

another bad move . . .

hoped he'd be a very early draft member, first of the WRs . . .gotta think this hurts him. To me, it would say a guy that is afraid. Seems to be a mental thing for me and if I had someone else rated close, it might make me think.

He has 2 months to prep for this, the only thing that actually matters for him before draft day. This screams he knows he will have a bad time. Pro day does not have the same value. Bad prep and bad advice no matter how you slice it.

Folks, he gave the reason... but you have to read between the lines. "it's been a long season". He is still dealing with an injury and does not want his official first impression to be skewed. He knows that his official time would be slow right now so why not wait until healed. They know what they are doing. Another example of fake news.

I'm glad some of you don't draft for my NFL team...you want to drop Mike Williams because he didn't run a 40 at the combine? I'll take the on field evidence I saw the past few years over a couple 40 yard sprints. Mike should still be the first WR taken and if not the team who passed on him will greatly regret doing so.
