Ravens traded up with the Cardinals to select Minnesota TE Maxx Williams with the No. 55 overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft.
Williams (6'4/249) made 17 starts in two seasons at Minnesota, parlaying 61 catches into 986 yards (16.2 YPR) and 13 TDs. He was the 2014 Big Ten Tight End of the Year and a second-team All American. A flex/move tight end who also blocks competently, Williams' game has similarities to former Ravens TE Todd Heap. Williams tested in the Brent Celek range with a 4.78 forty and 34 1/2-inch vertical at the Combine. Still an at-times dynamic receiving threat, Williams has huge hands (10 3/8") and long arms (33 1/2"), and can win with power or finesse. He's quality insurance should Dennis Pitta not make it back from his severe hip injury. Williams is sure to see the field a decent amount as a rookie.

Minnesota TE Maxx Williams has a "lot of upside" and "should be a good addition to anybody's roster depth right now and has potential to become a standout in a couple of years," notes NFLDraftScout.com's Frank Cooney.
Williams hoisted up 17 reps on the bench at the combine, interesting in the context of how he responded to questions about what he must improve upon for the NFL: "I would say my biggest weakness is my strength. Being only 20 years old knowing that my body's not fully developed into what it could develop into is a strength. But I feel like my biggest weakness could turn into one of my strengths, as I turn 21, 22, and get those years and experience in the weight room developing my body." As Cooney notes, there is much work to be done for the consensus top TE prospect. "Williams appears to have all the skills to be an excellent NFL tight end, but his value at this moment is in perceived promise rather than actual production."

CBS Sports' Will Brinson believes giving Peyton Manning a tight-end weapon like Minnesota TE Maxx Williams "should be a big help," with the No.28 pick in the draft.
"The departure of Julius Thomas leaves a void in the Broncos offense. They've got plenty of weapons for Peyton Manning in Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas but giving Manning a tight-end weapon should be a big help," Brinson wrote. The 6-foot-4, 249-pound Williams could be an immediate red zone threat, with a quarterback like Manning throwing to him. The Minnesota prospect has been compared to Jason Witten and Kyle Rudolph.

Minnesota TE Maxx Williams "needs to improve his route running in order to become a more complete receiving threat," according to NFL Media draft analyst Lance Zierlein.
"Pass-catching, move tight end with straight-line play speed and an ability to stretch defenses deep. Williams comes from NFL bloodlines and has the self confidence often found in a former player's son, but he needs to improve his route running in order to become a more complete receiving threat," Zierlein wrote. The 6-foot-4, 249-pound Williams recorded nine catches of 25 yards or more in 2014, which led all college tight ends. Williams could come off the board, at the back end of the first round.
