fbzh2 Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 The last I heard was that that POS Mike Williams screwed Jacksonville too. After making the team he had another “injury” and the Jags eventually put his sorry a$$ on IR. Did the POS ever play a game for them? Did they come to an injury settlement or do they still own his rights? And is there any team in the NFL or world for that matter that would be foolish enough to sign him, unless it was for Chief Donut Tester… No self respecting man would have done what he did. What a POS. What is his status with the NFL?

Buftex Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 He may be a POS, but apparently, Dockery talked to him about playing in Buffalo (they were college teammates at Texas) and Williams raved to him about Buffalo, and the fans.... http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial/20070...?tbd1069157.asp

Thanks....too bad some of Dockery's play attitude didn't rub off on him. He might have been still around.
MDH Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 A bad tackle doesnt make for a bad man You could never tell that based on the venom most posters seem to have for him.

Buftex Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 A bad tackle doesnt make for a bad man I have met Williams a number of times, through my job....he is a great guy, maybe one of the nicest guys to come through UT in the last number of years. I was thrilled when the Bills drafted him, and disappointed that it didn't work out. If there was one knock on him in college, there were always questions about his "desire" to play football. I guess those concerns were warrented. Maybe nice just doesn't cut it. Strange thing is, right before his last season in Buffalo, I talked with him, and he was very pumped about the upcoming season, and looked like he had been doing some serious conditioning. Honestly, I know he was not as dominant as you would expect for where he was picked, but I never thought he was as bad as the experts here made him out to be. If he hadn't had the humungous salary (which I realize he was not worthy of), I don't think he would have been cut.

Buftex Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 “He was not intrinsically motivated”- Marv Levy A fair assesment I would say!

If he hadn't had the humungous salary (which I realize he was not worthy of), I don't think he would have been cut. Exactly his play, his draft status and his salary were intertwined....he wasnt a terrible linemen...Just wasnt good enough for that huge contract.... If he was drafted in the 3rd round...He would still be here playing RT
BuffaloBilliever Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 I'm gonna take a stab at it and guess that you don't like Mike Williams.
fbzh2 Posted March 4, 2007 Author Posted March 4, 2007 A fair assesment I would say! I shouldn’t have been so personal with the POS moniker on him- but I was always so frustrated with his play…..and the high hopes we had for him with the team.
Arkady Renko Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 I am not sure I am on board with calling a person a POS because he didn't meet expectations when playing football.
Chicken Wing '73 Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 You would think for millions and millions of dollars Big Mike would put down the cheesburgers and work out like he was on "The Biggest Loser" (after all they only win like $500,000. Sad. Maybe Dr. Phil could have helped him.
MarkyMannn Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 I have met Williams a number of times, through my job.... You flip burgers or bake donuts???

Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 What is his status with the NFL? Flipping burgers somewhere.
