Williams will not play ST likely, and he is still a lock for the roster unless he goes full Barber in preseason. He is the most talented runner on the roster. Period. Look for Mackinnon to lose touches to both Breida and Williams as the season goes on, and Williams seperating to show he is the best runner on the roster.
Mackinnon is a career third down back. Period. I dont care what system he is in. He is not a great runner.
It's like your stuck in the 1990s...Le'Veon Bell avg 4 ypc last yr and he's making what $14+ million a yr no? Fournette Avg 3.9 ypc last yr so he's a horrible RB?
End of the day I'll take someone that's gonna get 1,200 yards from scrimmage. It's a passing league.
Maybe williams is a great runner doesn't matter if he can't do the other things required of a RB (especially in Kyle's scheme). That's why he lost out to a UDFA because he's lacked the other skills (PP, holding onto the ball, and catching the ball),
Hey I hope he shows up and rocks out...I want any 49er to do well. I'm not gonna hold my breathe though.
Good post!
