Tyrell Williams

As far as a convergence of value and opportunity, it might not get any better than Williams at this point of your draft. Williams is going to be a late-round pick at best in your fantasy drafts, but he has an incredible opportunity in front of him. Unfortunately, he's not on a great team and his skillset doesn't exactly mesh with Jared Goff. Williams will have some big weeks here or there, but it's unlikely that we ever view him as a staple of our fantasy lineups in 2021.

Tyrell Williams agrees to one-year, $6.2M deal with Lions

Former Raiders WR Tyrell Williams has reached an agreement on a one-year, up to $6.2M deal with the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact

With uncertainty surrounding both Marvin Jones Jr. and Kenny Golladay’s futures in Detroit, the Lions go out and snag one of the more talented wide receivers on the open market in Williams. He didn’t play a single snap for the Raiders in 2020 due to injury, but scored six touchdowns in 14 games for them in 2019. Williams has a 1,000-yard season under his belt from the 2016 campaign with the Chargers, so we know he’s got some talent. Solid pickup for the Lions and a nice payday for a guy who didn’t play a season ago.
