Maxx Williams TE Minnesota

@nfldraftscout: Interesting nugget: Two teams I talked to really didn't like Maxx Williams in interviews. "Cocky, bored, seemed too good for us."

Yeah I read that two teams have lost interest in him because of his cockiness. This is the first time I ever heard of a team being Turner away because of his cockiness, he must be one cocky man.

Maxx Williams and Kelvin Benjamin have pretty much identical SPARQ scores: 108.0 and 106.4

Both were really low. But if you read his FAQ, he says SPARQ doesn't factor in height, and says that is "SPARQ’s biggest blind spot — it doesn’t appreciate that tests are harder for [a big WR] to perform than they are for [small WRs] like Brandin Cooks"

Still odd that Jarvis Landry had the worst score with 78.4, and everone knew he'd be good

Landry must have been sick or coming off an injury or something at the combine. His numbers were absolutely abysmal and anyone who watched him play knew he was more athletic than that.

Sports Illustrated:

"at a position of vital importance to most NFL offenses... Williams can create the mismatches against linebackers and safeties that NFL are salivating over these days. ... Draft projection: Late first round"

New Orleans is taking him. I have to imagine they are.
