Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Trey Flowers
Summary

Wesley Williams is a powerful, disciplined defensive lineman who makes his biggest impact as a run stopper. Using a low center of gravity and brute strength, he consistently stalemates blockers and disrupts backfields. While he lacks the flexibility of a pure speed rusher, his relentless motor and ability to fight through double teams allow him to consistently collapse the pocket.

About
  • 2024-25: Two-time Honorable Mention All-ACC; two-time Academic All-ACC
  • Career: 130 tackles, 29.0 TFL, 11.5 sacks across 41 games (29 starts)
Strengths
  • Exceptional power and leverage at the point of attack.
  • Relentless motor with the speed to chase down ball carriers.
  • Highly effective at disrupting running lanes.
Weaknesses
  • Lacks elite bend to win around the edge with speed.
  • Struggles to consistently disengage from blocks when he doesn’t win early.
  • Can be overly aggressive on RPO plays, sacrificing edge containment.
