Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or Cedric Tillman

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams was slightly more productive in his fourth year in the league in 2025 despite the loss of offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. Williams, the 12th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, set new career highs in catches (65), targets (102), and receiving yards (1,117) while scoring seven times for the second straight season in 17 starts. The 24-year-old only played in six games in his rookie campaign in 2022 as he recovered from an ACL tear, and Detroit struggled to find a role for him in Year 2. But Williams has reached his true potential over the last two years with 1,000-yard seasons, and he could have an even higher ceiling in new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing's scheme in 2026. Williams finished as a top-12 fantasy wideout in half-PPR scoring and will definitely have WR1 upside again for the Lions in 2026 as a big-play threat all over the field.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman had a three-game flash near the middle of his sophomore season, during which time he caught 21 passes for 255 yards and two scores. Unfortunately, nothing he's shown before or since has indicated a need to keep him rostered anywhere outside of the deepest dynasty leagues. Remaining relatively healthy throughout the 2025 season, the soon-to-be 26-year-old totaled only 21 receptions for 270 yards and two touchdowns, unable to carve out a meaningful role on one of the league's worst receiving units. With rookie drafts approaching in many dynasty leagues, managers now face decisions over who to cut to make room for the new class. With early reports tying Cleveland to some of the top receiving talent in the NFL draft, and with no promise of improved quarterback play in 2026, Tillman no longer needs to be held if roster space is at a premium.
