Who Should I Start? Javonte Williams or Bijan Robinson

Saturday, November 1, 4:38 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams has been phenomenal this season and continues to deliver consistent fantasy production. While he was held in check on the ground last week against the Denver Broncos, rushing for just 41 yards on 3.2 yards per carry, he still found the end zone twice and salvaged a strong fantasy outing. Williams has shown impressive consistency near the goal line and remains a key part of the Cowboys' offensive success. Williams draws a great matchup in Week 9 against the Arizona Cardinals, who have struggled to stop opposing running backs, allowing seven rushing touchdowns through eight weeks. With this game carrying one of the highest projected totals of the week at 54.5 points, Williams should have plenty of scoring opportunities once again. RotoBaller ranks him as the RB10 for Week 9, and he remains a reliable fantasy option with RB1 upside in this matchup.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson logged just 12 carries for 46 yards in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots as the team got behind early and all but abandoned the run. However, as has been the case all season, Robinson continued to be heavily involved in the passing attack, drawing 10 targets from quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and turning them into eight catches for 50 yards. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, Drake London recorded all three of the team's touchdowns, but Robinson still managed a top 12 finish at running back despite not finding paydirt. Week 8 aside, when London was absent, the 23-year-old is second on the team with 21.1 percent target share, which provides a solid weekly floor. Week 10 brings a matchup with Indianapolis on a neutral field in Germany, a defense that has been tough against the run (although it allowed two rushing TDs this past week), but that has been soft against the pass and is allowing 24.5 points per game on the road (16.6 PPG at home). The former first-round draft pick figures to be involved regardless of game script, so he'll surely be a top option at running back again on Sunday.
