Preston Williams

Despite not starting right out of the gate, Williams impressed the coaches enough to earn a starting spot by Week 3 of his rookie season. He quickly became a fantasy producer and was the No. 39 wide receiver in fantasy through nine weeks despite being a few weeks behind the curve. Now you add Tua Tagovailoa, which should be considered an upgrade over Ryan Fitzpatrick and Josh Rosen. While Devante Parker may be the 1A, his price is much more expensive than Williams, making Williams the better value late in drafts.

Preston Williams: Dolphins 'cautiously optimistic' he is ready by Week 1

The Dolphins are "cautiously optimistic" that WR Preston Williams (ACL) will be ready by Week 1, per Barry Jackson and Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald.

Fantasy Impact

Williams had recently been cleared for football activities, but the Dolphins are easing him back into action. "There’s no assurance he will be deemed ready for Week 1, though Miami is cautiously optimistic he will be, the Miami Herald added. He passed his physical and is progressing well. But Miami is being cautious." Williams hauled in 32 catches for 428 yards and three touchdowns across eight games his rookie season. If healthy, he is projected to be the second or third option in the Dolphins' passing attack. The 23-year-old is currently 51st among all wide receivers in the latest expert consensus rankings.
