I think you are way off base thinking Williams wont get drafted.

That’s all you pulled out of that comment? Of the OSU RBs drafted you could only argue that he’s maybe better than Mike Weber who was drafted in the 7th round and he has put up no where near Weber’s numbers! Honestly he was the 5th best RB on the field yesterday! Treveyon has done great things as a freshman but the trio we faced today looked more dynamic and consistent and their OL just wanted it more!

Yesterday was much more a case of the OL for scUM being better and simply wanting it more. But talent for talent Williams is better than every scUM RB. Exhibit A is simply the Minny game and then Exhibit B would be the Purdue game. Williams can punish defenses and get 1-2 extra yards every run, something Henderson hasn't mastered yet.

And in Webers draft year, he was getting the ball split mainly with Dobbins, so of course he wouldn't have monster numbers to be drafted high, not to mention that was the year that Haskins was the main weapon in the offense and we would rather have him pass 50 times than run. So you're not telling the entire story. Guys like Alvin Kamara and Damien Harris, an even our own Rod Smith didn't produce big college numbers in RBBCs, but still made the NFL as well

Until bowl games begin, it's on to postseason individual awards and teams of the year. On Monday, the 247Sports True Freshman All-American Team was announced and three of the Buckeyes' first-year players made the list, the most of any team in the country, in running back TreVeyon Henderson, cornerback Denzel Burke and defensive tackle Tyleik Williams.

2. TreVeyon Henderson, Ohio State

There's a long list of powerful running backs to come through Ohio State, and if 2021 was a glimpse of what is still to come for TreVeyon Henderson in Columbus, he's sure to be remembered among the greats. His average of 7 yards per carry led the entire Big Ten, ending the year with 1,172 yards and 15 touchdowns. While those totals trail Michigan's Hassan Haskins (1,288 yards, 20 touchdowns), context matters: Henderson did what he did on 167 total carries, nearly 100 fewer than the 261 times Haskins was fed the football. Henderson also made himself useful as a pass-catcher, hauling 285 yards and 4 touchdowns over 23 receptions.

His pass catching ability as a freshman still surprises me. Not many freshman RBs, or WRs for that matter, catch for almost 300 yards at OSU.

I think the way he was used against TTUN is perfect at this stage in his career. Hoping to see a better game plan against Utah where they split inside carries with Williams and give Henderson 5+ catches on the edges.

If he left after 1 year? Sure. Vision might not be easy to develop, but its weirdly early to write him off as just that. He'll have a ton of film and time to work with this spring and summer.

Yeah, it’s funny to write off a kid after year 1. And a frosh year where he set a Frosh TD record and was one of our 3 most explosive offensive players. Every freshman RB won’t have a season like Bijan

Dafuq, kid came in after not playing his Sr. Year of high school and had a monster year. He was running behind a line built for pass protection, not running sand still had numerous amazing runs not to mention setting a freshman TD record.

some folks on this site need to get a fucking grip….

CFB expectations have become unreal. It’s not all, but definitely a segment of every fanBase that expects a 5star to become one of the best players once they hit the field. Recruiting has now set unreal expectations , because the higher you’re rated the more you’re expected to be so early. Hence some expecting Ewers to start over Stroud after the Oregon game, and be given more plays against Tulsa (but yet he probably didn’t know where half his classes were on campus). And we’re all to blame who follow recruiting to a point. Because we lose our shit over getting that 5star like Henderson, and yawn at getting a “backup plan” like Miyan Williams. Gone are the days of being patient with a high ranked player in todays CFB, and it sucks for the kids. But they’re no longer kids at this point
