Williams at 60th overall (round 5) is too early; limited volume with Laporta and new tight-end-heavy scheme.
Williams is going around 60th overall (end of round five) as wide receiver 26-27 on CBS and Fantasy Pros, but the source views this as too early. Williams averaged only 4.8 targets per game in nine games when St. Brown and Laporta were healthy last year and does not have a strong track record when Laporta is healthy. New offensive coordinator Drew Petzing has a history of utilizing multiple tight end personnel and targeting tight ends, which the Lions brought him in to implement alongside a bigger, tougher offensive approach that emphasizes tight end blocking in the run game. This limits Williams' volume and makes him a boom-bust number three wide receiver. The source would start considering Williams at the end of round six, not round five.
