Looking to learn even more about the Detroit Lions’ 2025 draft class? Well, you’re in luck! Meko and I (Morgan) are back with more draft-related content, this time breaking down All-22 from Lions first-round draft pick Tyleik Williams.
We dive into the tape from Williams’ impressive final season at Ohio State, and right away we begin to understand what Lions general manager Brad Holmes was talking about when he spoke about the defensive lineman’s game. Williams is a big, powerful athlete that packs a punch at the point of attack. Similarly to Lions’ star defensive tackle Alim McNeill, the rookie is a lot more athletic than some may believe.
We included clips from his performance against the University of Oregon, as well as several snaps from the College Football Playoffs semifinal against Texas. In both games, Williams made it clear there is quite a bit more to his game than simply being a space-eating nose tackle at the center of a defense.
He is a problem against the run, consistently resetting the line of scrimmage when teams attempt to block him with a single player, and you can see the vision with him as a pass-rusher, too. You can watch the entire video right here.
