Dallas Cowboys second-year guard Connor Williams has looked much improved this year since adding some much-needed bulk to his frame.

He's been more powerful at the point-of-attack and his anchor has appeared to be much improved.

However, that didn't stop Maliek Collins from physically dominating him on this snap during the one-on-one pass-rush drills at Friday's practice:

Collins is aligned as the under tackle with an outside shade over Williams. Once the ball is snapped, Williams attempts a quick strike with his outside (left) hand to slow Collins' momentum; however, the Nebraska product does an excellent job of slipping the strike while using his outside hand to guide Williams' hand off his pads.

This left Williams' chest dangerously exposed and, making matters worse, Collins' low pad level (low hips) gave him a significant leverage advantage. Collins forced Williams into a compromising position and took full advantage. With momentum, power and leverage on his side, Collins landed a thunderous blow with his inside (left) hand, which immediately put Williams on skates.

From there, Collins was able to drive his feet and reverse pancake Williams for what would have been a sack on the quarterback.

Previously in his career, Collins relied on finesse moves (particularly his spin move) to be effective as a pass rusher. An added power element to his pass rush repertoire should only make him more effective.

It's still early, but if Collins continues to progress like this through training camp, he shouldn't have a problem besting his career-high in the sack department this year (five).
