It appeared as though Kyle Williams was the frontrunner heading into the final week of the preseason, and when practice began for the first regular season game week it became official. The third-year defensive lineman will start at right defensive tackle after competing with the likes of Spencer Johnson and John McCargo throughout the preseason.

Re: Williams lands RDT job
Wow, I thought it had been announced before TC that McCargo was the starter? Either way that's great news for Williams but horrible news for us, another first round debacle. -

That's all on McCargo he could be really good if he actually worked. Coming into camp overweight sure doesn't help your case.Originally posted by gr8slayerComment

That's on the Bills for drafting him; it was no secret at the time that he was not a first round caliber talent and we could have likely gotten him in the second.Originally posted by The SpazComment

Re: Williams lands RDT job
He showed flashes last year and he obviously regressed. Also the Giants were rumored to snag McCargo if we didn't take him.Originally posted by gr8slayerComment

A rumor that their GM later denied.Originally posted by The Spaz
He showed some flashes last year but he needed to really have a good offseason. Im curious to see how the DT depth chart and rotation will shake out.COMING SOON...

He showed the same "flashes" that a lot of 5th-7th round picks show every year. He has a long way to go if he's ever going to live up to what we gave up for him.Originally posted by DraftBoyComment

Re: Williams lands RDT job
Of course he would deny because he didn't land him which would have been a negative on him. I agree he should have gotten motivation to fight for a starting spot but he was lazy instead.Originally posted by DraftBoyComment

This is great news. His big cheeks will help anchor the D-line.Comment

Re: Williams lands RDT job
Great news although I feel Williams easily had the upper hand. McCargo is still trying to beat the inconsistant bounty on his head and Spencer had to learn a new defense as well as multiple positions in that defense.
Nobody should be counting out McCargo just yet. Shouldn't he get the same patience that was afforded to AY(by the staff, obviously not by this board)? This kid still has potential and will have time to prove it this season whether he starts or not as the scheme for this line is rotation heavy.
Either way, if everyone stays healthy I have no problems with our depth what so ever.
“Everybody wants to start, but it’s a very loose term in our defense,” Williams said. “With the guys we have now we feel like we really can rotate. Without a doubt you always want to be the guy out there. You always want to be the guy out there to make that play and obviously to be the first guy out there and the first line of defense is exciting. It’s great that the coaches want me to be the guy out there with Marcus.Comment

So is McCargo now able to be labeled a bust?Comment

Re: Williams lands RDT job
I don't think it matters who starts; it's just a formality. We'll be rotating in and out so much that it really doesn't matter. Hopefully in the 4th quarter these guys aren't sucking windComment
