Williams has excellent acceleration to and through the hole, and has the ability to cut and make
defenders miss. He runs with authority, and battles for the extra yard. He possesses great vision,
and just seems to know where the hole is. He is a willing inside runner, and yet he still has the
speed to be a threat outside.
The biggest problem with Williams is his frame. He has a slim build, and he could really use some
extra pounds. It would help him be a stronger interior runner, and help him be more of a workhorse.
While Williams has good speed, he isn’t a true burner. Cadillac also needs to show he can catch
the ball out of the backfield, as he hasn't been asked to do that a great deal until this point.
Cadillac is a very good running back prospect, and could have a very good NFL career. He
has been consistently moving up and should be a sure top ten pick.
Combine Notebook: He will do everything at the combine.
He thinks that he is the total package. He believes in his work ethic. Got nickname because he
ran smooth like a Cadillac. Favorite team is Cowboys.
Strengths:
The embodiment of pure athletic ability and talent with amazing vision, Cadillac can change
direction and cut on a dime. He is the quintessential "pads" player, he plays much faster than his
timed speed and is extremely quick. Carnell has the "It" factor and intuition that all the
great ones possess with the potential to be a franchise running back in the NFL.
