Obviously he'd take the shot but Williams is a known entity down south, been scouted, gone through camp with the Chiefs and was released already. He had a good year. It wasn't Dee Alford good. He doesn't have the freakish athleticism or unknown intrigue that Tyrell Ford had. I guess never say never, it just takes one scout to really like a guy, but I'd be really surprised.

 
Agreed. He had a decent year, but was hardly a lockdown corner teams feared. He doesn't have NFL size, speed or physicality, he'll be back here.

I have no clue, but I wonder what the cost difference is for chasing an NFL tryout vs. a starting roster spot in the CFL.  Is the NFL required to pay players for TC other than for their travel cost and accommodations plus a per diem food allowance?

M. Williams might get an NFL tryout offer but the NFL will have access to an entire draft class of newbies. I'm not sure he can make an NFL roster.

I see many of our issues on defence as MLB and safety. If we decide that Smith is going to end up at SAM, then I see Kramdi as possibly the odd man out. He has a high SMS and he's not best at playing safety. I know he's popular and the " smart guy " on defence but is he trade bait?
we are likely going to have to go with 3 imports on the oline, and last year we tried to free up a national by going with 3 national recievers which was a bust. We may not have room for a import sam, which means we would utilize Smith/Kramdl. I cant see Kramdl going anywhere.
 The need is for mlb position.
