Boom-or-bust chance-taker with his frenzied, downhill run support at safety. Cisco plays with quick run diagnosis and displays a feel for reading gadget plays. However, he really struggles when it comes to taking proper pursuit angles and finishing as a balanced, wrap-up tackler. He has the athleticism for man coverage but is missing route feel and instincts to stay connected to the pattern. He was never better than his freshman season and he might benefit from fewer man cover duties and more split-safety looks where he can play forward and keep an eye on the quarterback. He plays with fearlessness but his linear, full-speed pursuit diminishes his margin for error greatly and could make him a high-risk safety.
Defensive back with adequate size to play free safety or as a big nickel near the line of scrimmage. Williams doesn't have the loose lowers or long speed to carry routes down the field, but he plays with adequate route anticipation and coverage burst to handle some off-man and zone duties from nickel. His play attributes could lend themselves to a role as a backup safety but he'll need to elevate his run support to stick around and fight off competition for his spot.
