What the Experts Say About Packers RB Jamaal Williams

"Take Dalvin Cook!" "Draft Joe Mixon!" "Why won't we pick Perine to start round 4?" "I like James Conner!" "I'm hungry for football!"

These were all common quotes this weekend, and all of them were wrong. The Packers selected a running back from BYU, Jamaal Williams, with their second fourth round pick.

Here's what the experts are saying about Williams:

Williams overcame a lot of adversity to make it in the draft.

The Packers feel like they got great value with Williams in the fourth round.

Some analysts think Williams may have gone lower than he should have.

Williams won’t blow anyone away with his speed, but he does shed tacklers with abandon.
