    The Detroit Lions are hoping third-round draft pick Derrick Williams can do a little bit of everything but, so far, he's done a whole lot of nothing. Williams didn't take part in any of the workouts during the team's recent minicamp because of a sore hamstring and the coaching staff is worried that he's going to be far behind when training camp begins. The Lions are looking at Williams as strictly a return specialist this season, something he did with some flair at Penn State.

    sweet so we wasted a 3rd rounder on a KR when we could have picked one up in FA or UDFA

    I would have thought they would have given him a shot to play in the offense. I guess they have a better view of Northcutt than I do.
