From the episode

The Cowboys are just in the red zone very often and Javante's the only guy. While he was heavy reliant on touchdowns in 2025, it looks like he can easily duplicate that in 2026 with just how often he's able to get those opportunities regardless of how efficient he is.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Williams' red-zone volume and touchdown repeatability were underestimated despite thin efficiency.

The source was bullish on Javante Williams early in the offseason, expecting him to re-sign with Dallas and maintain his role, and recommended drafting and buying him in Dynasty. However, as his price rose to the third round, the source faded him, citing concerns about his 2025 inefficiency as a pass catcher and historical precedent that running backs with poor pass-catching efficiency rarely maintain the same workload. The source viewed him as a thin bet at that price point. However, the source was wrong: Williams is scoring heavily in 2026, duplicating his touchdown-reliant production from 2025. The Cowboys are in the red zone very often and Williams is the only guy getting those opportunities, making his touchdowns highly projectable regardless of per-touch efficiency. The source's miss was underestimating how dominant the Cowboys offense is and how many red-zone opportunities Williams would receive.
