The source identifies Antonio Williams as a third-round rookie wide receiver for the Washington Commanders who is ranked WR84 in ECR. The source views Williams as an easy draft selection at his current cost, particularly if Stephon Diggs has not yet signed. Williams is described as fitting well in a slot receiver role, though the source cautions that as a third-round rookie, he should not be relied upon as a primary option. The source notes that Williams has been learning the playbook throughout the offseason, which could give him an advantage if Diggs does not sign in time for training camp.

The source views Antonio Williams as a potential number-two receiver in the Commanders' pass game, with slot receiver profile from Clemson. While Stefan Diggs signing would push him to fourth or fifth in the pecking order, the source argues the longer Diggs remains unsigned, the more bullish the case for Williams becomes; he's positioned as a grab-and-stash target in deeper-bench leagues at near-free cost, with upside to jump ahead of Chig and Rashad White if injuries occur to receivers ahead of him.

Williams is positioned as the likely number two target in the Commanders offense if they don't sign a veteran like Stefan Diggs or Keenan Allen. His competition includes Luke McCaffrey, Traylon Burks, Jalen Lane, and Van Jefferson, but there is not a lot blocking him from being the number two target. Zach Selby from the Commanders website said it won't be long until Williams is a focus of the offense if he continues to play well in camp. Commanders blogs are praising him as the number two right now.

Williams is a dart throw at the end of drafts as a potential number two receiver for the Commanders. He was a massive prospect for Clemson, missed three games but still led the Tigers in receptions last year. He increased his yards per route run to a career-high 2.27 last season, had the highest yards after catch per reception since his freshman season, and cut his drop rate from 9.6% to 1.8% as a senior. He has been the buzz of camp and is currently the leader in the clubhouse as the number two in the Commanders' pass game pecking order.
