Bill Williamson isn't the best beat writer in world but he is on the money about my adoptee D.J. Williams.

Perhaps lost in the thrill of the last-minute dramatics in Buffalo and the moxie of Jay Cutler was the play of the Denver defense - in particular middle linebacker D.J. Williams.
The guy deserves a lot of credit. He had a difficult job moving form strongside linebacker to the middle, replacing fan favorite Al Wilson. So the pressure was already on him.
Then the preseason started, and Williams was often out of position. He admitted that he was struggling in the transition.
Yet, in the season opener, at Buffalo, Williams was all over the field. He had a huge first-quarter sack of quarterback J.P. Losman that took Buffalo out of scoring position, and he led Denver with nine tackles.
That showed Williams is in the right place. He is only going to get better as he gets more comfortable.
So for all of those who thought Williams was going to be a disaster in the middle, they can relax. The kid belongs there.
