Michael Williams was Georgia Bulldogs player before the board in the 2025 NFL draft, as he landed with San Francisco 49ers in the first round with the 11th overall pick in the first round.
And his selection was a very popular in Athens, where members of Bulldog, who did not enter the draft this year, were closed on events in Green Bay.
Bulldogs were selected by the team’s response to Williams, the team celebrated wildly as 49ers took him to his defensive end place from Nick Bosa.

13 players were selected in seven rounds in Georgia, and Bulldog will be clearly pleased to see each of those players to get their dreams of making it in the league.
But the response to Niners for Williams says how much he was respected in the Bulldogs Locker Room, which definitely appreciated playing through an injury in his final season as he fought through a high-face in the season opener against Claimson Tigers.

Speaking after the first round, 49ers general manager John Lynch spoke a lot about the character of Williams.
Asked about whether he checked about Williams during the pre-draft process with Georgia’s head coach Kirby Smart, Lynch said: “You know, I am tightening with Kirby, but very soon and in the process very quickly it was clear that Michael was a man for us. And therefore, we were less on him.
“The character of this child is imperfect. The scouts did a tremendous job to give information. We saw everything we liked. And so, sometimes it is best to lie only things and we did.”
Their response to the pre -peers now talks to the character that 49ers will expect to settled in their locker room quickly and have immediate effects in professionals.
