Steve Wiltfong said about Williams:
Williams, a multi-sport star with NFL pedigree, has a lot of fans behind the scenes at 247Sports, but his decision is somewhat difficult because it’s hard to know who they are. He is ready to play at the next level.
After recording 15 sacks in 2022, Williams stepped up on offense this fall, catching 16 passes for 424 yards and seven touchdowns in 10 games. Instead, he had just four sacks while competing in one of the Sunshine State’s smallest divisions, according to MaxPreps .
Some colleges say Williams is next level, but the Seminoles and others think he’s a pass rusher.
247Sports’ scouting department takes sides on who they think is a defensive back. While athleticism is important to Williams, who is believed to be somewhere in the ballpark of 4,444, 6-foot-4, and 215 pounds, it’s important to note that he didn’t actually play football. As a freshman, he had five tackles and two sacks on the varsity.
