2023 Outlook
Depth Chart
While he has definitely had his moments, Williams' body of work in six seasons since being the seventh overall pick leaves something to be desired. Durability continues to be front and center, more so than just the number of games missed would suggest, as the Clemson product seems to be dinged up constantly, which serves to undermine his consistency; that's how you end up with things like 10- and 15-yard games sandwiched around a 113-yard effort to open last season.

His size, raw talent, and ability to make contested catches have made him a dangerous weapon in the red zone, though his yards per catch have dropped three straight years, going from 20.4 YPC in 2019 all the way down to 14.2 a year ago (that was his worst number since he caught just 11 balls as a rookie). It's hard to imagine Williams' inability to string together productive efforts week in, and week out, didn't play a role in LA targeting a receiver in Round 1, thus lessening the degree to which they'll need to rely on the 28-year-old wideout this year.

Rewind the clock to 2022, and it felt like Williams was pushing for a spot as a top-20 receiver. Now, he's better suited as a decent No. 3 fantasy wideout that could carry you one week and kill you the next. If you're OK with that type of feast/famine from your WR3, make the pick. If you want steadier value, Williams isn't the best choice.

News From The Past 90 Days
Mike Williams signs one-year deal with Jets
WR coming off ACL injury
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Mar 19, 4:55 pm

New York Jets
Mike Williams is signing a one-year deal worth up to $15 million with the Jets, per source. Williams was scheduled to next visit the Panthers and Steelers. But he is not getting out of New York. (Adam Schefter on X)

FFToday's Take: Williams tore his ACL back in September of 2023 so he should be able to play this upcoming season barring a setback. His presence will give the Jets a much-needed second receiving option opposite Garrett Wilson. Williams' best season was in 2021 when he posted a 76-1146-9 line finishing as the WR17 in PPR leagues.


Chargers release WR Mike Williams
Coming off September ACL injury
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Mar 13, 2:05 pm

Sources: The #Chargers are releasing WR Mike Williams, making him a free agent. Williams, on the books for a $32M cap hit, becomes a top FA WR available. The Chargers would like to bring him back, but Mike Williams will test the market. (Ian Rapoport on X)

FFToday's Take: The Chargers needed to make this move (saves $20M in cap space) in order to get under the cap. Williams is coming off a September ACL injury and has topped 1000 yards just twice in his seven-year career. At age 29, he will likely have a decent market as one of the lone big-bodied receivers available.
