Cam Skattebo vs Javonte Williams

“Running Backs Cam Skattebo (RB – NYG) It feels like I’ve spent most of the offseason sitting in the conductor’s seat aboard the Cam Skattebo express hype train.”

“Obviously, for this to happen, Cam Skattebo would need to avoid the injury bug and play a full season. Tough ask with his running style. But when he was on the field, he showed elite metrics.”

“was productive taking over as New York’s starting running back when Cam Skattebo suffered a season-ending injury in Week 8.”

“When given an opportunity to handle the early-down work for Big Blue last season, Skattebo finished as an RB1 in three of five weeks. Not only does he have a nose for the end zone and constantly runs through arm tackles, he is also an adept receiver, and one of Jaxson Dart ‘s best friends.”

“Pick 4.03 – Cam Skattebo (RB – NYG) Hopefully, Skattebo can stay healthy after suffering a gruesome ankle injury last year. The former Arizona State star was outstanding for fantasy players when healthy, ranking as the RB6 from Week 2 through Week 7, averaging 18.8 touches for 96.3 scrimmage yards, a touchdown, and 17.4 PPR fantasy points per game, despite only playing an average of 64.2% of the snaps during the stretch. Skattebo could have a breakout season, especially if Malik Nabers isn’t 100% healthy to start the year.”

“5 | Diff: +2 The human battering ram known as Cam Skattebo made waves in his rookie season before being sidelined by a horrible ankle/fibula fracture that also ruptured his deltoid ligament in Week 8 of last season.”

“But Skattebo is a back who has a reckless playing style, which makes me concerned that he’s going to be one of those players who is always dealing with a lingering injury. With Malik Nabers also recovering from a torn ACL and Matt Nagy calling plays, I’m skeptical about this Giants offense.”

“One thing we do know is that as long as Cam Skattebo and Jaxson Dart can stay healthy, they’ll burn bright for fantasy.”

“With an expert consensus ranking (ECR) of RB19, Skattebo showed enough to justify being drafted in the dead zone and has RB1 upside if healthy.”

“While Skattebo proved to be nothing if not effective, ranking near the top of the NFL in rushing touchdowns and first downs per rush over the first two months of the season, his efficiency left room for improvement. According to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, Skattebo's 4.1 yards per carry and 3.0 yards after contact were fairly average stats, and he only produced one carry of over 20 yards.”

“Skattebo was a dedicated bell-cow back in his final year of college, ending the Sun Devils' regular season with two games in which he produced 324 rushing yards and six touchdowns. In the Big 12 Championship, Skattebo stole the show with 170 yards on the ground and three total touchdowns, and when the team was eliminated in the playoffs, it was in spite of Skattebo's 148 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, and 42-yard touchdown pass.”

“New head coach John Harbaugh (BAL) has committed to a physical run game, and further strengthened that commitment by drafting Francis Mauigoa in the first round of the draft. Skattebo only has Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary to worry about stealing carries, which should be a non-issue.”

“Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) Going as the RB16, 34th overall, one analyst has him as a top-12 back and would consider taking him as early as round two, though round three works just as well.”

“Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) was actually the RB1 in fantasy points per game last year, yet he’s being drafted like a mid-tier RB2 this year.”

“Round 5: DeVonta Smith (WR – PHI) Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was staring me in the face, but with a FLEX spot still available in a PPR league, I couldn’t pass up DeVonta Smith .”

“Thus, I went with a fairly safe RB2 in Javonte Williams. Williams had a massive share of the running back carries last season and caught 35 passes. He’ll approach nearly 300 touches this season and is on a high-powered offense.”

“RB10 RB23 RB19 Javonte Williams RB11 RB19 RB17 Ashton Jeanty RB12 RB8 RB6 Team Success Another takeaway from last season is that while team success is ideal for increasing red-zone opportunities and valuable carries inside the five-yard line, it is not necessary to finish as a top-tier RB.”

“Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) Williams was one of the best fantasy football draft values last season. Despite being the RB36 in ADP, the former North Carolina star ended the year as the RB12, averaging 15.2 PPR fantasy points per game.”

“This, combined with the decent running game by Javonte Williams , makes taking them both at their current ADP a no-brainer.”

“Javonte Williams among RBs last season: • 896 yards after contact (6th) • 54 missed tackles forced (7th) • 11 rushing touchdowns (8th)”

“Javonte Williams was highly efficient last season, but the Cowboys were often playing from behind, so he couldn’t get to his ceiling. This season, with a full year of Quinnen Williams , along with stud rookies Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence , the Cowboys should be much improved.”

“In Javonte Williams’ first season with the Dallas Cowboys, he ran 252 times for 1,201 yards and 11 touchdowns, and caught 35 passes on 51 targets for 137 yards and two touchdowns. Heading into this season, my biggest concern for Williams was the Cowboys adding another running back, but ultimately, they didn’t. The running back depth chart includes Williams, Malik Davis , Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah .”

“I'm genuinely high on Javonte Williams for redraft leagues this year. I think he's in line for a big season.”
