Who Should I Start? Jakobi Meyers or Jameson Williams

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers finished as the WR3 in half-PPR leagues to cap off the regular season despite the 34-20 loss to the Chargers. Meyers registered nine catches for 123 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. He finishes the season with his first 1,000-yard total to go along with four touchdowns and a career-high 87 receptions. On the year, he ended up as the WR23, surpassing his previous career-best at WR24 last season.

The Detroit Free Press' Dave Birkett expects the Detroit Lions to attack defenses more deep down the field in 2025 under new offensive coordinator John Morton, which should primarily benefit big-play wide receiver Jameson Williams. The 24-year-old pass-catcher had his fifth-year option picked up for the 2026 season after breaking out in 2024 in his third year in the league to the tune of 58 receptions, 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns on 91 targets over 15 regular-season games (11 starts), where were career-highs across the board after injuries and a suspension limited him in 2022 and 2023. Williams' 2024 numbers were good enough to make his the WR22 in point-per-reception formats, but he's still a bit of a boom/bust fantasy option in a Lions offense with lots of playmakers. He will need to be efficient with his touches, but Williams showed last year he's a home run threat every time he touches the football.
