I have been really impressed with Duke Williams this year. He is playing like every hit counts. Of course when I looked I realized it's a contract year for him, so it's either that or maybe some solid coaching from Ed Reed, but I am excited to watch this kid play.

Duke Williams
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Duke Williams
I've liked this kid since we drafted him, but am getting impatient waiting for the light bulb to come on. Hopefully this is the season it does, we could use help at safety.YardRat Wall of Fame

Re: Duke Williams
Hope you guys are right because last year he was downright abysmal. A liability would be a compliment. Once AW went down it all went downhill with him in the back end. Duke sucked and for some reason Corey Graham decided to have a down year as well. Age maybe ?? Rambo was the only decent player.
Anyway lets truly hope Duke has turned the corner because AW seems like he wont be the same and who knows what to expect from Graham.

Re: Duke Williams
Guy singlehandedly loses Pats games.
Then that 3rd and forever assignment he blew last year game two.
He'd have to improve to be below-average. Blanton for 3rd safety, please.
