Really, you can't question Mike Williams effort, the guy clearly wants to be great, but there were teams that invested $20-$30 million in this guy, and couldn't turn him into a blocker. This team spends $690,000 on him, and isn't any closer at getting him to be an offensive tackle. At what point do you just call a spade a spade?

If you like his work ethic and potential, move him behind Dockery at LG, and make him a one position player. Then cut Bridges and sign someone who can actually play the tackle position. There's no point to having 2 tackles, 2 centers, and 5 guards.
