Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or DeMario Douglas

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is coming off a WR12 finish in fantasy football, but consistency has been an issue for the former first-round pick. Williams had seven games with fewer than 7.0 fantasy points in PPR leagues last year, including a pair of zero-point finishes. His consistency (or lack thereof) is preventing him from being a plug-and-play low-end WR1 on a weekly basis. Williams' role is clearly defined, as the Lions use him to stretch the field while giving Amon-Ra St. Brown some of the safer targets. That explains why he's been more boom-or-bust, but it shouldn't necessarily prohibit him from producing more consistently. Fantasy managers will look for Williams to be more dependable in 2026 and beyond. One possible solution for dynasty managers is trading Williams now, because the WR12 finish from last year masks how up-and-down his season actually was.
