Bryce Williams

strengths

Value is as a pass-catcher with his long-striding speed and smooth route-running to attack soft spots in coverage. He moves like a wide receiver and catches the ball well in stride, displaying a good-sized catching radius and aggressive ballskills to pluck in contested situations.

leaner than ideal and lacks desired bulk for the tight end position. lacks ideal power as a ballcarrier.

--Dane Brugler (10/29/15)

williams is a tough, scrappy player who can line up inline, in the backfield and out wide, playing like a bigger version of riley cooper on the field.
