Quinnen Williams' tackle log from LSU game shows why he's skyrocketing up NFL Draft boards
Alabama DL Quinnen Williams is only a redshirt sophomore, but much like LSU redshirt sophomore CB Greedy Williams, he’s expected to be a first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.
Quinnen Williams is earning more NFL money by the week, though, turning in several incredible performances in 2018 so far.
As you can see below, his 10-tackle, 2.5-sack performance against LSU explains why he’s skyrocketing up NFL Draft boards:

Williams has not gotten much action the past couple of years, but this season, he’s making the most of his starring role.
He, not Raekwon Davis, is the stud on Alabama’s defensive line, and he should be a millionaire by this time next year.
Yikes
No problems with Williams leaving. He’s a beast this year, get your money! TBH, Raekwon needs to come back. He disappears in games this year and hasn’t been playing up to that preseason all-american hype he got. Highly doubt he comes back though. Most mock drafts got him in the 1st round. Williams I believe is not even in the mock 100 currently…that will soon change.
I noticed against LSU that Davis was never getting off the line. He seems slow this year.
Most of Bama’s schemes call for one of the DL to take the blockers out, so the others can loop and slide on the offense. Williams has the quickness and strength to get into the backfield from the closest point. Davis is taking 2 or 3 blockers away from the protection. Just the way it looks to me.
He was blocked one on one most of the night.. He wasn’t drawing a double team.
