    2010 NFL Draft Scouting Report: Damian Williams
    http://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2010dwilliams.php

    Damian Williams, 6-1/190

    Wide Receiver

    USC

    Damian Williams Scouting Report
    By Matt McGuire

    Strengths:
    Good height with room to bulk
    Very soft hands; rarely drops passes
    Great body control
    Catches ball at highest point
    Excellent hand-eye coordination
    Love his ball skills
    Quick feet
    Elite-level route runner
    Deceptive speed
    Changes directions quickly
    Slippery fast
    Does an outstanding job of changing speeds in/out of routes
    Generates very solid Y.A.C.
    Recognizes various coverages
    Can find soft spots in zone
    Eats up off-man cushion quickly, then separates
    Gets two feet in on sideline catches; aware
    Highly talented with great upside
    Polished player
    Operated in traditional West Coast offense
    Plays with a lot of heart
    Good character and reportedly great work ethic

    Weaknesses:
    Quicker than fast; can he beat bump-and-run consistently?
    Timed speed might go under microscope if not sub-4.5
    Could be more physical at line of scrimmage
    Inconsistent blocker
    Has some wasted movements
    Could shield corners better
    Shoulder injury history must be checked into

    Summary: Williams is the kind of wide receiver I love watching tape on. He is very polished and well ahead of the pack, meaning he could contribute immediately in the NFL. With Williams’ talent level and work ethic, he has a great foundation to be a star receiver in the NFL. Transferred from Arkansas to USC with high school teammate Mitch Mustain.

    Player Comparison: Jimmy Smith. Smith was that very rare route-runner you just don’t find very often. Williams might be the best route-runner I have seen in four years of scouting.

    If Case Keenum and Jemea Thomas are added to the practice squad, that will probably be enough for this week. 😉

    Rams sign QB Case Keenum to practice squad

    by Mike Wilkening

    October 30, 2014

    The Rams have brought back Case Keenum.

    St. Louis signed Keenum, the ex-Texans quarterback, to its practice squad on Thursday, according to the NFL’s transaction log.

    The Rams waived Keenum on Tuesday. When he cleared waivers Wednesday, he was eligible to be added to the practice squad.

    The 26-year-old Keenum started eight games for Houston in 2013. However, the Texans overhauled their QB depth chart entering this season, and Keenum lost his spot. The Rams claimed him on waivers from the Texans on Sept. 1.

    The Rams are one of 19 teams carrying just two quarterbacks on the active roster. However, 14 of those clubs, including St. Louis, have at least one practice squad passer as insurance.

    Overall, there are 78 quarterbacks on 53-player rosters, with 16 passers on practice squads, which were expanded to 10 players this season.

    The Rams have their roster up to date, with numbers and everything, including the practice squad.
