Comments: Wow. This is shocking. For the third year in a row the Detroit Lions have taken a stud wide receiver. I guess Joey Harrington will have no excuses now. None at all. I am still in shock the Detroit Lions took him. I think Mike Williams will be an ok NFL wide receiver. He's tough, but I think his lack of refinement in college will hurt him out of the gate.
