STACKED’s take
Williams projects 57.5 yards; LaPorta splits show target share variance and depth concerns.
Williams projects for 57.5 receiving yards in Week 1 vs. New Orleans. There are real splits with Sam LaPorta available: Williams has an 18% target share, 10.5 half-PPR points, 8.4 expected half-PPR points, and 55 YPG in 24 games with LaPorta over the past two seasons. His average depth of target climbs from 11.0 to 13.0 when LaPorta is on the field, as LaPorta runs more intermediate crossers while Williams stretches the field. The Lions' secondary is in bad shape, suggesting a high-scoring affair. The loss of David Montgomery may lead to more dropbacks from Jared Goff, who has finished second in passing yards in three straight seasons. The Saints' No. 1 neutral pace offense comes to Detroit, and there should be as many points and plays as any game this week. The Lions are narrowly second in projected points. Saints DC Brandon Staley's scheme prevents explosive plays with more deep safeties, making it more difficult for Williams to get home. He'll face CB1 Kool-Aid McKinstry in isolated matchups.
