fantasy managers should temper expectations for both McCaffrey and Williams out of the gate, as neither should be on draft boards to start the year

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Williams expected in immediate slot role but should be avoided in early drafts; temper expectations.

Williams, a rookie third-rounder from Clemson, is expected to step into an immediate slot role for the Commanders in 2026. He played 77.2% of his college snaps from the slot and produced three seasons of 600-plus yards, topping out at 75-904-11 in 2024. The source notes he is known for his production after the catch and brings four solid years of college production to the pro level. However, the source explicitly cautions: 'fantasy managers should temper expectations for both McCaffrey and Williams out of the gate, as neither should be on draft boards to start the year.'
