Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Jameson Williams

Thursday, July 31, 1:32 PM

The Athletic's Jon Machota writes that Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has been the clear standout at this year's training camp. "Lamb has been all business on the field. It's been rare to see him drop a ball in individual or team drills. He's had one so far. And it bothers him. He came to California with a goal to 'catch everything,'" Machota writes. He goes on to say that the chemistry between Lamb and quarterback Dak Prescott "looks ready for Week 1." The Cowboys brought in George Pickens in the offseason, and Cowboys offensive coordinator Klayton Adams is trying to find the best way to utilize the strengths of both Lamb and Pickens. A little more of the spotlight could go to Pickens in 2025, but Lamb is still in a great spot at 26 and in the prime of his career. After four straight 1,000-yard seasons, Lamb is an easy top-five fantasy receiver.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler writes that Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is expected to see "an uptick in targets" this year, as quarterback Jared Goff said the fourth-year receiver is embracing a more diverse route tree. "To see the growth in Jamo this offseason has been a lot of fun," Goff said. Williams averaged around six targets per game last year, and Fowler expects that number to grow in 2025 under new offensive coordinator John Morton. The 24-year-old former 12th overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft out of Ohio State dealt with injuries and a suspension his first two years in the league before breaking out with 1,001 receiving yards and seven touchdowns on 58 catches over 15 regular-season games (11 starts) in 2024. There are a lot of mouths to feed in Detroit's offense, but Morton seems to want to involve Williams alot, which makes him a low-end WR2 heading into his fourth season.
