Denver's Williams on the move again

One of the keys for Denver as it tries to turn around from a 7-9 season will be linebacker D.J. Williams. He has been moving around more than any NFL player in recent seasons.

Williams came into the league in 2004 and he had instant success as a weakside linebacker. The first-round pick was a runner-up for the defensive rookie of the year. When Denver brought back Ian Gold in 2005, Williams was moved to the strongside for two seasons. Last season, Williams was moved to middle linebacker to replace the waived Al Wilson.

Williams started the season slowly and was often out of position. But he finished strong. Williams had 141 tackles, which was second in the NFL.

Still, the Broncos thought he'd be better off at his first NFL position. Thus, Williams is at the weakside again in wake of Gold being cut. Williams is a fine player but he deserves to have some stability. He was probably at his best on the weakside so it'll be interesting to see how he adjusts to yet another move.
