Mike Williams is useless right now, when they are very much in need of depth on the offensive line. I still can't figure out the logic, if any, that was used in making the decision to keep him. I don't see how it could hurt to take a look at a guy that actually played in the league, last season.

Seriously, the only time he ever had upside, he was coming out of Texas. He never lived up to his potential. Everyone wants to be enamored by the fact that he was a first round pick
7 years ago. It's no accident that he was out of the league for 2 years, he's not a very good football player. He did nothing to disprove that in the final preseason game.
I can't, for the life of me, understand why he stayed over Bridges. I like him and admire his work ethic, but the fact remains that I can't think of one DE who can't beat him off the ball.
