Malik Willis

PositiveSleeper0:00

RotoWire identifies Malik Willis as an easy draft target due to his high rushing floor; he averaged 58 rushing yards and a touchdown across three starts in Green Bay. While his passing ability remains uncertain, his rushing usage provides a reliable fantasy floor. If he performs at an above-average level as a passer, he could reach low-end QB1 or high-end QB2 status, with potential to reach the QB8 range if he exceeds expectations. His fantasy value is compared to Anthony Richardson, as both rely on rushing ability to anchor their production.

0:00Like he's the easiest click on the
0:01board, I think in all of fantasy
0:02football in a in a regular home league
0:05type environment, you know, because if
0:07he doesn't pan out, you drop him, you
0:09stream, you can get low-end QB1
0:11production via streaming. You look at
0:13what he did in Green Bay, he averaged 58
0:15rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in
0:17his three starts there. We don't know
0:18what he's like as a passer, let's just
0:20be honest, you know, like I'm fine with
0:21the leaning into that ambiguity and just
0:23saying like I have no idea if Malik
0:25Willis is going to be a great passer or
0:27not, but the bottom line is if they
0:29deploy him the way that he's been
0:30used historically, this is his
0:32floor in fantasy football. Like like
0:34drafting him in this area. If he has
0:36even like a above average passing
0:38season, he's going to more than likely
0:40be a low-end QB1 high-end QB2. So you're
0:43going to get some equity there. But then
0:44the question is like what if he just
0:46ends up being kind of special? And now
0:48all of a sudden you're inching towards
0:50that like QB8 range. And I know the
0:52situation there looks neutered on paper
0:55and I don't disagree. I think the most
0:57likely outcome is that he gives us a lot
0:59of good rushing production, the passing
1:01production is very questionable, and
1:03it's more of like an Anthony Richardson
1:04type situation, you know, where the
1:06floor is there because of that rushing
1:08ability. That's probably the most likely
1:10outcome.
1:11>> Since 2014, there have been 34
1:13quarterbacks with 100 plus rush attempts
1:15in a season. 91% of them finish as a top
1:1812 quarterback in fantasy. So it's the
1:20it's the rushing floor for for Willis.
