The season starts in a nine days. It doesn't seem feasible to keep a project offensive tackle when there will likely be free agents that can step in and perform adequately, after Saturday's cuts. I don't see how anyone can be comfortable with having Mike Williams as the #3 offensive tackle.

He's fourth, Bridges is the backup right now.

There were some bright spots with Williams play. I can see him evolving into something alot more dominant with due time. I think he makes the squad and wiil develope into a reliable back up with minimal drop off from the starters eventually.

I just don't see MW making a big impact for this team. I would rather have a good FA. I don't know?
