DeAngelo Williams draft news:

Is top pick another Steve Smith?
Their positions are different, but the Panthers believe the rookie running back brings the same kind of game-breaking ability Smith does. That's why the Panthers used the 27th overall pick on Williams, who will team with DeShaun Foster and Eric Shelton at running back. Foster is a back who can run inside and outside and the team believes Shelton can be effective in short-yardage and goal-line situations. But Williams might be different than any running back in franchise history. He's a flashy runner with breakaway speed who has the potential to be a consistent home-run threat.

Jersey number has meaning for Williams
"That's the number I wore in high school," Williams said at Bank of America Stadium. "I wore 34 in high school mainly because of Ricky Williams and what he did in college, when he played for Texas. Being in Arkansas, there were only two schools you'd ever see, Texas and Arkansas."
