I'm holding out hope that Jameson Williams will gimme that spark of a "League Winner" this season

I feel like Dan Campbell isn’t going to let that happen. He’s old school smash mouth run, defense and special teams.

Which is why Gibbs isn’t getting play. And Goffs ceiling is severely limited.

I have Williams, but don't see it. I hope you are right though.

Because he didn’t draft himself in his fantasy league.

I have him also and I think Williams’ ceiling is Gabe Davis who drove me nuts last year. One week 20 and the next week 4. But I could use anotherWR so I’m hoping for the best

On paper that is an incredibly explosive and balanced offense now.

-Goff at QB playing very well
-Outstanding OL
-Montgomery as the inside feature back
-Gibbs as the Kamara speed back outside
-Very talented young TE
-an elite WR1 in AR St Brown
-one of the fastest WRs in the league taking the top off of any defenses who cheat to take away the run in Williams

I’m not sure there are enough touches for Williams to be consistently elite but you can’t tell me he won’t have HR opportunities deep when DC are getting bled out by Montgomery running for 4-5 YPC inside.

I’m not sure there is a more talented skill group in the NFL outside of Miami and even then it’s only the freak athleticism of Hill and Waddle that would give them the edge.

Williams helps ASRB IMO. The deep threat is going to create some great space for ARSB. I don’t think Williams gets significantly more work than Raymond is currently getting for them

Coming off his 203 rushing yards in which he averaged 11.3 yards per attempt vs. Denver, Dolphins’ rookie RB De’Von Achane has earned an increased workload and the team is expected to try to use him more, per a source. Miami’s issue is its depth at running back. Raheem Mostert has played well and the team also likes Salvon Ahmed, who is questionable for Sunday due to a groin injury. Jeff Wilson Jr. is expected to come off the PUP list and return to practice soon.

Ford is safer and behind a top 3 rushing OL.

But I’m just not gonna watch this guy blow up on my bench again.
