Mike Williams is re-signed

Mike Williams is re-signed. Looks like they are keeping a lot of options open on the O-line. Of course, we all hope he is being signed as a G and not a T. lol

I like this signing for depth and maybe compete for the starting RG position. I think a major problem the Redskins had last year was Depth along the Oline. It looks like Shanny and Allen are addressing depth and possible some competion along the line.

I wonder what the contract looks like. I could see a scenario pan out where he shows up to camp fat and happy and he doesn't see the field in B&G ever again...

If you went down to the police station and asked the sketch artist there to draw you a picture based on the description of the exact opposite of what a successful offensive lineman in Shanny's offense looked like, it would come out looking precisely like Mike Williams.

i can't say i like it - but it might not hurt to have him as a reserve.

Another underwhelming signing, i see this move as just getting another body to compete. The fact that he was starting nfl games last year was impressive in itself. He was as competitive at right guard as anyone else we had , but that isn't saying much. Maybe he will get good and then we can one day watch a pbs melodramatic movie about him overcoming his weight issues and becoming a star  |

Shanny on Mike Williams:
Quote:
|
On Williams: "Mike showed a tremendous work ethic and willingness to do whatever the team asked of him, and those are two of the traits we're looking for in Redskins players. We believe that he's only scratched the surface of his abilities so far, and look forward to seeing what he can do after a full offseason in our program."
