Let’s take a look at the dynasty rookie draft debate of Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams.
The case for Williams (Pick 2 overall, WR2)
Jameson Williams is a game-changing talent at the wide receiver position. With elite speed to take the top off of any defense and the route running chops to win at all three levels, he’s my 1.02 in dynasty rookie drafts in all formats.

The case against Williams (Pick 7 overall, WR5)
This isn’t meant as a diss. I think Williams is a top-10 pick in rookie drafts. I just don’t think he’s a top-five pick in rookie drafts. The concern isn’t so much that he’s coming off a torn ACL and could miss time at the start of the 2022 season, or that he’ll have ample target competition in Detroit, or that those targets will be coming from Jared Goff. The concern is that he’s going to be another DeSean Jackson. D-Jax was an electrifying playmaker, but Jackson’s slight build made him susceptible to injury, and he wasn’t a volume receiver for most of his career. Jackson had some dazzling games, but he was a streaky performer who also had a lot of dud games. At least D-Jax had longevity. The other comp that comes to mind for Williams is Will Fuller — and I don’t think Williams investors would be pleased with that outcome.
