The Detroit Lions sent just about everyone to Georgia?s Pro Day.
The Lions were well represented in Athens on Wednesday.
POD

General manager Bob Quinn, head coach Matt Patricia and defensive coordinator Paul Pasqualoni were all in attendance on Wednesday morning, among a few others within the Lions organization. And they weren?t just watching, they were right there testing some of the NFL prospects:
New #Lions head coach Matt Patricia and Bill Belichick running one of the drills here today with prospect OLB Lorenzo Carter.
Georgia?s Pro Day is a pretty good place to be if you?re looking for draft prospects. The Bulldogs are sporting a laundry list of top players in this year?s draft, including LB Roquan Smith, OT Isaiah Wynn, RBs Nick Chubb and Sony Michel, and DE Lorenzo Carter among many others.

Williams (6-2, 313) is a very good run defender. He played in 15 games (11 starts) last season with Tennessee and finished with 20 tackles (12 solo). Twentyman

I get fans wanted Hankins, but Williams is still a solid player who could start or buy time for a rookie to get ready to start. He is a former 1st rd pick and his last contract averaged $5.5 M for a NT. That's solid.
