Williams getting past 10 or so is just wrong in any PPR league. Hope I can buy him cheap somewhere

He fell to pick #20 in my draft yesterday. I was sitting at #23 and hoping he'd make it to me, but I ended up with Engram instead.

This seems so much like OBJ's hamstring injury derailing his value in 2014. He never should have fallen as far as he did in many drafts, but lack of a preseason and being hurt took the shine off him for some. Granted, Williams' injury being to his back is potentially more serious. But as noted by others we're talking about a 1st-round NFL talent being drafted in the middle of the 2nd-round of some dynasty drafts. That's just crazy value!

I had the same thought Shoreline (got OBJ at 1.09 in 2014 and took Williams at 1.10 this year), but the difference is that OBJ had WAY better metrics and combine performance.

Here's to hoping he does the same things, but count me skeptical.

Although not a huge fan of the injury situation... I took Williams at value at pick 1.12 this past week. As others mentioned, hard to pass on that value.

Ditto on the injury concern, just picked him up in the 21st round of an idp start up, too much value to pass, actually think we all forgot about him

I have drafted Williams twice recently, both IDP drafts including vets, but I got him as 13th and 14th offensive rookie selected -

Anyone worried about his injury? I'm facing my draft in an hour and he could slide to me at 1.11

Or do I keep waiting as I have 2.03 and 2.05

Once upon a time people were discussing Williams as the top WR in this class, so unless you never agreed with that assessment, the injury concern shouldn't drop his value THAT much. Yes, it's a risk, but if he gets healthy and turns out to be what people at one point thought he was, that's a pretty good return on investment.

I took him at 1.10 in my main league and was happy with that. A month ago he was a consensus top 6 pick, and this is Dynasty after all.

I got him at 2.08 and was plenty happy with the value. I was shocked he was still there.
