In last weekend's NFL Draft, the
Carolina Panthers selected former University of Memphis star running back DeAngelo Williams with the 27th overall pick. For many, it was a shock that Williams, one of the most talented players in the draft, fell that far. It was obviously a surprise to the Panthers as well, as they ran the card up to the draft podium in less than two minutes.
During his career at Memphis, Williams earned a reputation as one of the nation's most complete running backs, as he has shown the keen ability to take over a game as a runner and receiver, and make a solid impact as a backfield blocker. Undoubtedly, Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme will love to have the three-dimensional Williams accompanying him in the backfield.
