Who's gonna end up winning this job? The career backup, Jennings or the rookie, Williams? Guess u can go ahead and scratch Wilson

I posted this in the sleeper thread about Williams.

This is our first preseason overreaction after he tore up 2nd stringers

I'm not buying it

1) the Giants Oline is putrid. One of the worst in the league.

2) they have a pass happy OC implementing a quick hitting passing offense

3) Williams offers 0 passing down ability. The Giants want to run no huddle and pass a lot, so he's going to have a tough time getting on the field, even if he is their most talented between the tackles runner

He might be good to vulture some TDs on the goal line...but that's the best case possible IMO

Doubt anyone "wins" the job. Committee approach.

For years we've seen Jennings be between mediocre to above mediocre. We haven't seen anything from Williams yet.

But we know what Jennings is, and we don't know Williams is.

If you're going to own one, I'd rather Williams based on where you get him vs where you have to draft Jennings to get him now that everyone knows Wilson is likely out.

jennings will hold most of the value while he is still standing. If anything, Williams may earn a couple extra carries per game, maybe goal line (but Jennings is a big boy too). Jennings has a lock on the passing down RB job, as well as 2 minute offense because of his pass catching ability. I think Williams is going to be one of those pre season over reactions.

Not high on Jennings at all. Some people are pumped about him, I think he's a bust.

Would much rather wait and grab Williams.
