D'Andre Swift vs Jameson Williams

“Last year, Swift was the RB15 on the season. With over 1300 total yards and 10 touchdowns, he was the clear leader of this backfield.”

“Last year, Swift was the RB15, averaging 14.3 PPR fantasy points per game, a higher average than Bucky Irving (13.8) and Kenneth Walker III (11.3). More importantly, he averaged more rushing attempts (13.9 vs. 9.9) and yards per game (67.9 vs. 46.1) than Monangai last year.”

“Swift should be a mid-range RB2 again this season.”

“D’Andre Swift among 55 qualified RBs with 80+ rush attempts: • 2nd in % of 5+ Yard Gains (43%) • 3rd in % of Runs Stuffed at the Line of Scrimmage (36%) • 6th in % of 10+ Yard Gains (14%) • 7th in Zone Rush Success Rate”

“D’Andre Swift is arguably the safest running back to take in the dead zone. For his entire career, Swift has always found a way to finish as an RB2 in fantasy scoring.”

“D'Andre Swift is a favorite draft target in the fifth round based on ADP.”

“The Bears have a two-man backfield, with RBs D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai sharing work. But it's worth leaning into the Chicago backfield because the Bears should have one of the better offenses in the league, and Bears head coach Ben Johnson is one of the best running-game designers in the league. I would rather have D'Andre Swift than Quinshon Judkins, even though Judkins is expected to have more touches.”

“Going into this season, Swift is going to be the 1A in a duo with second-year back Kyle Monangai, as the team didn't draft any running backs nor sign anyone in free agency, leaving Swift and Monangai with the backfield all to themselves.”

“Swift racked up a career-high 1,087 yards on the ground and scored 10 total touchdowns, and with 34 receptions for 299 yards, averaged 14.3 fantasy points per game, good for RB16.”

“If that happens, Swift could easily be a top-18 running back for fantasy.”

“Swift was the preferred option around the goal line, and it becomes quite hard not to be interested in him at his current cost of RB25, going around pick 60.”

“Swift had a higher explosive run rate (5.4% vs. 4.1%), a better missed tackles forced rate (0.17 vs. 0.10), generated more yards before contact and was the better receiving back.”

“Getting Jameson Williams as my WR2 feels great. I think he scores a bit more in standard scoring due to his big-play ability, and we don’t have to rely on high volume like in PPR.”

“Perhaps the ceiling gets capped slightly if Jameson Williams trends upwards and Sam LaPorta is healthier, but the Lions were bad last season, and the most important thing is that they might have a competent play-caller once again in Drew Petzing. The team has said they want to lean into what Jared Goff does best by using play-action passes heavily.”

“Jameson Williams (WR – DET) Going as the WR28, Williams finished with 1,117 receiving yards last year, tied for eighth among all wide receivers, and is now a two-time 1,000-yard receiver averaging an elite 11 yards per target each of the past two seasons.”

“Tet is the one who already showed us the workload and is still being priced like we’re guessing.” – Jay Henry Ocho ( Jay Henry Ocho ) Jameson Williams (WR – DET) “ Jameson Williams is the type of player that can perform like a WR1 more often than he performs like a WR3.”

“Williams has posted two straight 1,000-yard seasons, and the usage shift that fueled his second one wasn’t just about a teammate’s absence, but a genuine in-season change in play-calling that got him the ball closer to the line of scrimmage to use his after-the-catch ability rather than deploying him purely as a decoy running deep routes.”

“The Fantasy Hitman was hoping to get Christian Watson before being sniped, so he settled for another explosive home run hitter in Williams. With his trio of WRs including the uncertainty in Nabers, Williams adds a big-play element to the consistency of Smith and gives Mike a very solid start to his draft.”

“20 come from two buckets: Hyper-specified role players (Stefon Diggs, Rashee Rice) Guys with other top 24 or strong ancillary target competition (Both Rams WRs, Jameson Williams, CeeDee Lamb, Tee Higgins, Quentin Johnston with Ladd McConkey/Keenan Allen) You may notice there’s one guy on this list who fits in neither, and it’s Thundering Herd legend Christian Watson (shout out to NDSU).”

“Despite finishing WR21 in PPR points per game, Jameson Williams remains too volatile to trust in lineups.”

“Jameson Williams is always electrifying to watch, and he’s coming off a season where he caught 65 passes for 1,117 yards and seven touchdowns.”

“Jameson Williams is one of the most volatile wideouts in fantasy. Think back to the beginning of last season, when he gave you dud after dud, making you consider benching him, only to watch him go off in the one time you didn’t start him.”

“Jameson Williams (WR – DET) Anyone who plays in best ball fantasy football leagues loves the thought of drafting Williams. The former Alabama star is one of the most dangerous players in the NFL when at his best and can score a touchdown on nearly any play.”

“Jameson Williams (DET) – ADP 61.9 | WR25 Last season, Williams quietly finished as the WR12, showing what a down year it was at the wide receiver position.”
