Julian Edelman caught giving direct advice to one Patriots rookie

New England Patriots receiving legend Julian Edelman gave some tips to rookie wideout Kyle Williams when visiting during a team practice over the spring.

Williams is a talented prospect who has received praise throughout the offseason. Former five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. even went as far as tweeting out that Patriots fans "got a real one" with the third-round draft pick.

There is hope that he can make an impact on Day 1, serving as one of the team's top receiving options. No one knows about being a top receiving option in New England better than Edelman, who caught 620 passes for 6,822 yards and 36 touchdowns over a career that spanned 11 years.
