Super raw, but Taj Williams has the potential to be something special. He was a top Juco prospect in 2016. Very good athlete with high ceiling.

6'3, 200 lbs
40 Yrd Dash: 4.50
10 Yrd Dash: 1.53
Vertical Jump: 34
Broad Jump: 10'04"
20 Yrd Shuttle: 4.44
3-Cone Drill: 7.05

Williams, Ka’Raun White, Caleb Scott, and John Franklin. The Seahawks cleaned up on undrafted WRs.

White seems ready to contribute from Day 1 if needed:

White looks a very interesting prospect, he tracks the ball so well.

I liked what I saw from both vids but I noticed very easily that White is not afraid one bit to sacrifice his body to make a clutch catch and that reminds me of Baldwin...that's very exciting as a Seahawks fan

I like the comparison. White dropped, I think, because his athleticism is a bit under par for an NFL receiver. Fortunately, plenty of successful NFL receivers are not upper echelon athletes.

White's SPARQ score was in the bottom 38.5% of NFL WRs:

But he's a playmaker!

I too see Baldwin all day in White. Gutsy and willing to "go get it." I hope that he makes the roster.

Wow. Kar'aun White might be a steal! Kevin White's younger brother. At about 2:10, he catches the ball, shifts right, the DB bites, Ka'raun shifts left, and is off to the races. That move really impressed me, it was instinctive and looked like he slowed down just a tad which seemed to effect the DBs speed also.

His QB, #7, seems to have a weak and wobbly throw, but dropped some dimes right in the bucket. Ka'Raun was catching them like his life depended on it. I'm guessing he didn't want to go back to working at Amazon. :)


Football? He’d tried it, but it just wasn’t working out.

I took two years off. It’s a pretty crazy story. It was over. I was done,” he said after going through his paces for the NFL scouts at last week’s WVU Pro Day.

He had been on the football team as a high schooler in Emmaus, Pa., but couldn’t find his way onto the field.

“They never gave me shot. I did what I could, made catches in scrimmages, but come the game, even in blowout games they wouldn’t put me in,” he explained

White had a lot of blooming to do, standing about 5-foot-9 or 5-foot-10 when he graduated high school, hardly the specimen he is now.

I was trying to get into D-II’s like Bloomsburg or West Chester, just to go to school and walk-on.”

But they really didn’t want Ka’Raun White.

Also being reported that they tried out Damore'ea Stringfellow, who is another physical, high ceiling WR.

Well that went well, White and Williams have left the building already.

I hope no-one suggested Williams would end up on the final roster and put those words into print, I'd hate for them to look silly :p :p
