I Like Vandy OT Williams – He’s A Keeper

Vanderbilt's offensive tackle Chris Williams could be the Eagles first pick.

Check out the article by Dennis Dillon on SportingNews.com.  He reveals quite a bit about this kid in the article. 

The kid has undergone quite a metamorphosis from the time he first arrived at Vanderbilt.  When he showed up they called him the "Bobbled Head Doll" because his body was so skinny and he head was so big in comparison.

The youngster got on the weights and built himself into an impressive specimen. They said he weighed only 245 pounds when he arrived at Vandy.  He's about 310 now.   His body is much bigger and because of it his wallet is going to get much bigger. 

I like what I've read about this kid.  He would be a great get for the Birds but there's no way they're going to get unless they utilize Lito Sheppard and move up.  Initially I think the Eagles had their eyes on him and weren't sure how other teams felt about him.  Now everybody knows this kid is a keeper.

The kid comes from a solid family and seems to have the structure and support you like to see.  He seeems to be a good investment.  I like the fact that the kid just got married and has the responsibility of providing for his family. You probably won't see this kid going out and doing something stupid.  

He's got a wife with her foot in his butt and a father with one in their also.  It's a shame the majority of these youngsters who are drafted don't have that.
