Footballguys on Malik Willis

Willis's rushing upside makes him a boom/bust play over higher-drafted QBs in Week 1.

Willis has the biggest cheat code in fantasy football: he's a running quarterback who will run a lot by design and on passing plays too. Even abysmal passing quarterbacks with top-end rushing threat can be boom/bust plays week to week, as seen with Justin Fields. He could also be this year's Jacoby Brissett, playing for an overmatched team and fattening up stats in garbage time against defenses nursing 17+ point leads in the fourth quarter. The Raiders matchup should encourage consideration over Jayden Daniels, Patrick Mahomes II, or other earliest-drafted quarterbacks with worrisome outlooks.
