Expert takes
“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

“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
“CLE | DraftKings: $6,600/FanDuel: $7,400 Garrett Wilson is an appealing cash-game option thanks to his heavy target volume in the Jets’ offense. With Breece Hall out for another game, New York could be forced to lean even more heavily on the passing game, giving Wilson plenty of opportunities to rack up receptions. The matchup against the Browns is also intriguing.”
Frank Ammirante· Oct 10, 2026“Among wide receivers who have run 50+ routes this season, Garrett Wilson ranks 10th in targets per route run versus man coverage (0.38), eighth in yards per route run (3.95) and second in fantasy points per route run. Fingers crossed.”
Tom Strachan· Oct 8, 2026“Garrett Wilson gets another opportunity to attack a defense with one of the league’s highest man-coverage rates. Wilson has cooked opposing defensive backs and is separating at a high rate. According to the Fantasy Points Data Suite, he’s averaging 3.95 yards per route run and ranks 20th among qualifying receivers in separation, with a 35% win rate against man coverage.”

“Garrett Wilson will vacuum up the targets in his absence.”
Edward DeLauter· Oct 3, 2026“According to the Fantasy Points Data Suite 2.0, Wilson has rock-solid or better marks of a 21.5% target share, 0.24 targets per route run (TPRR), 33.3% first-read rate and 37.5% air yard share this season. Mitchell’s 25% first-read rate trails behind Wilson’s. However, Mitchell is pacing the Jets in target share (23.1%), targets per route run (0.26 TPRR) among players with at least 30 routes and air yard share (59.4%).”
Josh Shepardson· Sep 25, 2026“Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic pointed out that Wilson led all Jets receivers with 42 targets during camp — the next closest was Adonai Mitchell with 27. I don’t think Smith will suddenly find the fountain of youth, but if he plays with remote levels of competence, volume alone should drive Wilson into low-end WR1 territory without issues.”
Evan Tarracciano· Sep 3, 2026“Wilson is cheaper, his QB situation is better, and his early schedule is the second-easiest. This might finally be the year I’m buying.”
Colt Williams· Aug 26, 2026“his counterpart for the Jets, Garrett Wilson, is coming off a much less severe season-ending injury. Potentially playing with the best QB of his career in Geno Smith.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 23, 2026“Honorable mention: DeVonta Smith and Luther Burden .” – Mark Ringo ( Sleepers and Busts ) Garrett Wilson (WR – NYJ) “ Garrett Wilson is an elite talent stuck on a team lacking elite quarterback play.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11, 2026“Garrett Wilson will easily lead the Jets in targets if he stays healthy.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 10, 2026“Add in the fact that Wilson has more competition than ever — first-round tight end Kenyon Saddiq, first-round receiver Omar Cooper Jr., and Adonai Mitchell, who the team acquired last year in the Sauce Gardner deal — and I’m just feeling faded by the Jets’ leading wideout.”
