Expert takes

Javonte Williams
  • “Javonte Williams ran an inefficient 19/62 on the ground but found the endzone three times to finish as the RB3.”

    Jordan Pullett· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Williams is averaging only 4.0 yards per touch (the fewest of any RB1 this season), but he has 81.1% of the backfield touches (RB7), with 44% of his fantasy points coming directly from touchdown production. Only Derrick Henry (46.3%) has a higher touchdown dependency among top-40 backs through four weeks. While that adds some potential regression here, Williams is still attached to a home favorite and has that workload and scoring equity in his pocket.”

    Rich Hribar· Oct 6, 2026
  • “While Javonte Williams remains the clear lead option for the Cowboys, Goodson appears to have carved out the primary third-down and backup role. The most fascinating stat from Sunday? Goodson handled seven touches on just 11 total snaps .”

    Nate Henry· Sep 29, 2026
See 9 more
  • “Javonte Williams is averaging 2.6 yards per carry through two weeks, and half of his carries have gone for two or fewer yards. He ranks second-lowest in rushing first downs and has looked slower this season. The Cowboys’ offensive line ranks last in yards before contact.”

    Jordan Pullett· Sep 25, 2026
  • “The Cowboys offensive line has struggled without Tyler Smith , and it has shown with Williams averaging 3.4 and 2.5 rushing yards per attempt so far. It will get better for Williams, but it may not be this week. Baltimore has the makings to make this a track meet early against a dreadful Cowboys defense, leaving Dallas no option but to toss the ball around the park in Rio.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 24, 2026
  • “While I believe the aforementioned Judkins and Javonte Williams are good backs, I am not sold that they are great. However, both RBs get nearly all of the work for their respective backfields. I’m no chemist, but I know that if you mix bad defenses with high-powered offenses, you often get fireworks.”

    Colt Williams· Sep 24, 2026
  • “Last year, Javonte Williams was a massive surprise in fantasy football to everyone, including me.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 5, 2026
  • “Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) A breakout that surprised even his believers, as Williams finished RB11 in points per game after most expectations topped out at a volume-driven RB2.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 3, 2026
  • “” – Aaron St Denis ( Fantasy Sports Advice Network ) Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) “If I end up with a late pick, Javonte Williams is the running back I’m targeting when I get to Round 3. Last year, he was awesome in his first year with Dallas, racking up 1,338 total yards and scoring 13 touchdowns.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 30, 2026
  • “Javonte Williams is coming off a season with more than 1,200 rushing yards and is in a high-powered offense.”

    Richard Janvrin· Aug 22, 2026
  • “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.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 10, 2026
  • “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 .”

    Richard Janvrin· Aug 5, 2026
Chris Olave
  • “Olave is up against James Pierre this week, who, of all Week 5 starting defensive backs, ranks first in fewest fantasy points per route run allowed, according to the Fantasy Points Data Suite. Pierre is only allowing 0.14 fantasy points per route run, despite being targeted on 17.2% of routes. This is going to be a tough matchup for Olave, and his fantasy managers should be cautious.”

    Adam Murfet· Oct 8, 2026
  • “Chris Olave ranks as their WR7, but no one else projects to be a good start at their position, and Andy is looking away from Saints RBs this week.”

    Jordan Pullett· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Minnesota ranks 13th against WRs, so it is not a terrible matchup, but Olave is getting most of the top targets with double-digit looks in all four games.”

    Brittney Foxworth· Oct 9, 2026
See 11 more
  • “Murray/Hockenson with Olave is my shot at MIN scoring through the air instead of through Jones.”

    Chris Cash· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Saints Fantasy Wide Receiver Preview Chris Olave (TRUST) Olave has double-digit targets in every game, leading to lines of 10-182-0, 8-86-1, and 9-107-0. He has run 132 routes (2nd only to his teammate Devaughn Vele ) but has seen 29% of the targets (WR5) and 47.7% of the air yards (WR4). He has play volume and front-end usage on his side, which has made him a front-end WR1 for fantasy.”

    Rich Hribar· Oct 1, 2026
  • “Olave has had at least 10 targets in each game this season. Olave will be somewhat popular, but with his price the sixth-highest on DraftKings, rostership shouldn’t be too aggressive. He’s a strong stack with Shough and playable as a one-off as well.”

    Tera Roberts· Sep 26, 2026
  • “Chris Olave is second in the league in both catches and receiving yards. Olave is also tied for second with DK Metcalf in total routes run. And yet, Olave is actually second on his own team in routes run.”

    Pat Fitzmaurice· Sep 25, 2026
  • “Chris Olave – 13 targets, 10 rec Devaughn Vele – 9 targets, 7 rec Travis Etienne Jr . – 9 targets, 7 rec The Saints fell to Detroit in that overtime game, but it was not for lack of trying, especially from Tyler Shough , who attempted 56 passes. With that many passes going around, it is not surprising to see a trio of Saints with at least nine targets. Olave averaged 9.8 targets/game last season, while Vele tied his career-high with the nine targets.”

    Aaron Larson· Sep 15, 2026
  • “Playing with a guardian cap in an effort to stave off concussions that have plagued him in the past, Olave is easily Tyler Shough ‘s favorite target and will look to repeat as a mid-range WR1 this season.”

    Evan Tarracciano· Sep 14, 2026
  • “Chris Olave averaged 18.8 fantasy PPG with Tyler Shough. Only Puka Nacua, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Ja’Marr Chase and Amon-Ra St. Brown averaged more in 2025.”

    The FF Newsletter· Sep 3, 2026
  • “Whenever he is on the field opposite Chris Olave (who has his own injury history), Tyson has tremendous upside, offering elite separation ability and versatility across the field.”

    Evan Tarracciano· Aug 31, 2026
  • “Chris Olave (WR – NO) | ADP: 27 (WR11) Chris Olave is in the bucket of players I discussed in the intro who have a high floor and a high ceiling, hence Olave’s average draft position (ADP) at the beginning of the third round in 12-team leagues.”

    Josh Shepardson· Aug 31, 2026
  • “Chris Olave is my answer because the market is still pricing him as a back-end WR1 while I see a legitimate path to a top-five season.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 25, 2026
  • “Round 4: Chris Olave (WR – NO) With Tyler Shough as his quarterback and Rashid Shaheed not on the field, Olave had a near 30% target share.”

    Richard Janvrin· Aug 22, 2026
