Hogs Haven on Antonio Williams
From the article
Selected 71st overall out of Clemson, [Antonio] Williams' primary strength lies in his route-running nuance and ability to create separation...If Williams hits the ground running in August, he gives Washington an organic, high-upside WR2 who can win at all three levels.
STACKED’s take
Williams' third-round value and elite route-running could make him a high-upside WR2 steal.
Williams, a 2026 third-round pick (71st overall) from Clemson, has the upper hand to earn a starting spot opposite McLaurin. The source highlights his 'primary strength lies in his route-running nuance and ability to create separation' and notes his college junior season production of 904 yards and 11 touchdowns on 75 catches with 'elite short-area quickness and spatial awareness.' His senior season production dip (55 receptions, 604 yards, 11.0 yards per reception) allowed him to slip to the third round, which 'could end up being a major steal for Washington if things break right.' The source compares him to Amon-Ra St. Brown due to his frame and route precision, and states 'If Williams hits the ground running in August, he gives Washington an organic, high-upside WR2 who can win at all three levels.' His disciplined route-running should fit David Blough's structured system, which weaponizes route technicians who can win inside the slot and flex outside.
