Williams is a sneaky Day 2 value who projects into an immediate slot role in Washington's offense. The former Clemson standout broke out at 19 and has consistently flashed strong efficiency (2.27 YPRR in 2025) despite battling injuries and an underwhelming team environment. With Deebo Samuel gone and the Commanders ranking top-3 in vacated targets, there's a clear path to volume behind Terry McLaurin. Williams' slot-heavy usage, versatility on special teams, and strong production profile make him a strong late-round sleeper in PPR formats.PositiveSleeperJul 31, 2026
Williams is a rookie third-round pick projected into a slot role and is viewed as the easiest, cheapest speculative WR2 dart throw given how deep he's currently going in Washington. However, he isn't expected to hold that role if a veteran free agent signs and steps in immediately.PositiveProjectionJul 31, 2026

Williams' high slot rate (77.2% per The Huddle) coming out of school is a knock, but it is possible he could work his way into two-WR sets ahead of Treylon Burks and Luke McCaffrey. It will be important to monitor his usage during training camp.PositiveValueJul 30, 2026
Williams is one of the favorite late-round upside wide receivers to target at his current draft cost. Washington added him in the third round after parting ways with Deebo Samuel (24.69% target share). He has a legitimate chance to emerge as Washington's WR2 behind aging Terry McLaurin, especially if the Commanders' offense rebounds with a healthy Jayden Daniels. Outside of McLaurin, the race to become the team's second-leading target is wide open, giving Williams a clear path to meaningful playing time.NegativeValueJul 30, 2026
