BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams has quietly had an extremely efficient start to the year as a pass-catching option out of the backfield. Williams has caught all 13 of his targets on the year for 119 yards. In the team's last game in Week 4 against the Atlanta Falcons, Williams led the Packers with eight receptions and he tied with Marquez Valdes-Scantling for the team lead in targets with eight.
Aaron Jones is the unquestioned No. 1 back on the team. He's off to a phenomenal start to the season, averaging 5.8 yards per carry with six combined rushing and receiving touchdowns. As long as Jones is healthy, Williams' upside will be capped. However, there's still clear value to be had in deep leagues from Williams as he has a clear stranglehold on the No. 2 back position on an offense that is really clicking right now. Rookie running back A.J. Dillon is the team's No. 3 back, but he has just eight carries on the year and doesn't have any targets in the passing game.
Add Williams in leagues of 14 teams or deeper. He can be a flex option right away and he has elite upside if something were to happen to Jones.
