Williams

Williams was part of final cuts last season and then spent the rest of the year on the practice squad. The Titans keep holding out hope that the light will come on for the 2007 third-rounder, but they are probably better off just moving on at this point.

Due to his history, we worry Williams could be a dud if he doesn’t see the field consistently right off the bat, but he’ll get that opportunity in Tennessee. Williams has an outside chance to start while David Givens rehabs.

Both players have the opportunity for significant roles this year on a thin roster, but appear currently to be slated for the end of the depth chart.

Williams came from Fresno State with commitment question marks and doesn’t appear likely to play a significant role with the Titans as a rookie. He has a ton of talent but is not a strong bet to do much in the league.

“You’re starting to see some of the attributes he has,” GM Mike Reinfeldt said. “People do it at different speeds and you can see he has gotten better over the last several weeks.” The super gifted but raw fourth-round pick still isn’t likely to make a notable impact in his rookie season.

Edison is a small-school project learning a complex offense for the first time. The Titans appear ready to cut bait on Williams, a 2007 third-round pick who just hasn’t progressed.

Williams, the 80th overall pick in 2007, has been inactive for 27 of his 32 games as a Titan. It will be a shock if he’s on the 53-man roster this season.

Williams, a third-year wideout, was already facing long odds to secure a roster spot after falling behind sixth-round pick Dominique Edison on the depth chart. The injuries don’t sound serious, but they only hurt his cause.

Williams was a former third-round pick of the Titans back in 2007. He was always a longshot to make the roster as he came from a small school and never progressed like the Titans wanted.

Williams was the Titans’ third-round pick in 2007, but has never produced on the field. King is a try-hard defensive tackle from Iowa. Schommer and Durand were draft picks this year. Ferguson is Ahmard Hall’s backup for now.
