Jameson Williams vs Tucker Kraft

“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.”

“What about the WRs? It seems like Jameson Williams is a point of conversation every year, and this year is no different. 2025 was kind of weird for him.”

“Now we have players like Tucker Kraft, Sam LaPorta, and Harold Fannin Jr. All of them young, talented tight ends who’ve shown high-end ceilings and are being drafted in the middle rounds.”

“The Jets have not added any talent at wide receiver that will truly threaten Wilson’s targets, and if he starts 2026 like he started 2025, he will be on pace for 150+ targets, 1,200+ yards, and 12+ touchdowns, which will make him a league-winning pick as WR19!!” – Adam Dove ( The Fantasy Couriers ) Christian Watson (WR – GB) “With Romeo Doubs gone and Tucker Kraft working his way back from injury, Christian Watson has a clear path to more targets.”

“Tucker Kraft is expected to be ready for Week 1. Let’s not forget how dominant he was before getting injured, showing incredible upside.”

“But I also like midrange TE1s such as Tucker Kraft and Kyle Pitts . And the TE position is so deep that you can spend down and still come away with George Kittle or Travis Kelce , who were considered elites at the position not long ago.”

“The impending free agent finished second among all TEs in YAC/catch – trailing only Tucker Kraft.”

“Players Trey McBride, Jake Ferguson, Tucker Kraft, and AJ Barner all made significant jumps in their second season over the past three years.”

“Last year, Tucker Kraft averaged the second most fantasy points per game at 12.7”

“With only Tucker Kraft , Jayden Reed , and second-year receiver Matthew Golden , opportunities should be endless”

“Tucker Kraft is a personal favorite of mine. Before his ACL tear last season, he was dominating the tight end position. In the eighth round in a league where the FLEX position can be used for a tight end, a duo of Warren and Kraft could be excellent.”

“If Green Bay slowly eases him in, I wouldn’t be shocked, but Kraft could easily be a monster value at the tight end position in 2026 if he comes roaring back at 100% earlier than we anticipate.”

“Last year, before losing the rest of his season to a torn ACL (Week 9), Tucker Kraft was the TE1 in fantasy points per game. In Weeks 1-8, among 33 qualifying tight ends, Kraft ranked seventh in target share (18.3%), first in receiving yards per game (67), second in yards per route run (2.71), seventh in first-read share (21.6%), and second in first downs per route run (0.121, per Fantasy Points Data). Kraft was also a YAC gawd, leading all tight ends in yards after the catch per reception and missed tackles forced per reception.”

“It should be noted, though, that Watson only had 8 targets last season in the two games both he and Tucker Kraft played, so it’s not a clean copy-and-paste to 2026.”
