Way too early to call Troy Williamson a bust.

I disagree. He has shown nothing. At least Braylon Edwards has made some big plays but Williamson has done basically nothing and I believe he had the 2nd highest drop to catch ratio in the NFL last year. TO was first. People can blame Tavaris Jackson and Brad Johnson all they want last year but I saw Tavaris put to perfect passes right in the breadbasket and Williamson dropped them both. This was against Green Bay. He catches those, no way do the Packers win that game.

He could turn out to be a good slot receiver but he'll never live up to that #7 overall pick and because of that he'll be labled a bust.

To be fair, He's played with two different coaches, and three different starting QB's. His rookie season was promising, last season appeared to be a set back, but involved a change from Brad Johnson, to Tarvaris Jackson. If Minnesota decided to give up on Williamson, I'd be thrilled to let him return kicks in Seattle until Holmgren left, opening a place in the WR rotation for a guy over 6'.
