Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or Ladd McConkey

Monday, March 31, 3:32 PM

According to Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes, the team expects to exercise wide receiver Jameson Williams' fifth-year option. "We're, you know, most likely gonna be doing that," said the Lions' GM. Holmes also noted that the 24-year-old is "still scratching the surface" and "has more in him." Williams finally put it all together last season, notching 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns over 58 receptions, elevating his play to his first-round price. The Alabama product was a superb deep threat for the Lions last season, adding an extra element to its offense. If Holmes' shining endorsement is genuine, then it's possible that Williams has another gear and could level up again if he works on his craft. The speedster is currently RotoBaller's WR49 in ADP (114 overall) but finished last season as the PPR WR22.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey was the lone bright spot of the Chargers Wild Card Round loss to the Houston Texans on Saturday. McConkey was targeted 14 times, making nine catches for 197 yards and a touchdown. The rookie's touchdown was an 86-yard play and the only one the Bolts would score in the game. While McConkey made his nine catches for 197 yards, the entire rest of the Chargers offense made five catches for 45 yards total. It was a rough performance by the LA offense, but McConkey shone through and truly established himself as an every week fantasy starter in his rookie year.
