Jesse Williams yet to be drafted in NFL Australia's Jesse Williams will have to wait another day to realise his dream of playing in the NFL. The big defensive tackle from Brisbane was hoping to be picked in the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday, and at worst in the second or third round on Friday, but it was not to be. In a major disappointment for Williams, he remains undrafted after day two of the NFL's annual meat market of college football's top prospects, with 97 other players selected by teams. The final four rounds of the draft will be held in New York on Saturday. "Chillin," a patient Williams tweeted during his long, painstaking wait after his many fans, including elite Australian sport stars, sent him encouraging messages. "Your time is coming man," Gold Coast Suns AFL convert Karmichael Hunt told Williams on Twitter. They got something against Aussies?? Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer Jessica Schipper asked Williams. Williams, 22, who played for the University of Alabama's back-to-back national championship teams, is a freakish physical talent, standing 191cm tall, weighing 147kg and able to bench press 270kg. He impressed NFL scouts in March with his speed when he ran a 40-yard (36.6-metre) dash in 4.91 seconds. However, it appears knee surgery Williams had in 2011, and another arthroscopic procedure in January, may have scared off NFL teams who had a wealth of other quality defensive tackles to choose from in the draft. NFL teams and their scouts often get it wrong, with some of the greats of the NFL not getting drafted until the latter rounds, or not at all. One of the biggest misses in NFL history was New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in 2000, who was selected in the sixth round behind 198 other players, but went on to win three Super Bowls and in 2010 signed a four-year $US72 million ($A70.26 million) contract. Two other Aussies, Louisiana State University's Brad Wing and University of Hawaii's Alex Dunnachie, both punters, have also been bypassed the past two days, but this was expected. Wing also sent a tweet of encouragement to Williams. Be patient bro! Your time is coming! Wing wrote. The NFL Draft takes place over three days and if Wing and Dunnachie are drafted, it will likely come in the seventh and final round. Williams is tipped to be one of the first picked in the fourth round, which begins about 2am on Sunday AEST.
