Karlos Williams (RB, BUF) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target in Later Rounds for FLEX Upside

CURRENT ADP: 290 STD, 277 PPR

ANALYSIS: With Fred Jackson now out of the picture, Karlos Williams should be the clear backup to LeSean McCoy in Buffalo. He was truly impressing in the preseason until he was forced to undergo a mysterious emergency surgery, the details of which are still unknown. It can't have been very serious, as the Bills still anticipate he'll be ready for Week 1.

I love the "cut of his jib", to borrow a phrase from ESPN's senior fantasy analyst Matthew Berry--he's a fantastic downhill runner, often punishing those who try to tackle him. He's perfectly capable in the passing game as well, which will be very useful with mobile Tyrod Taylor as the starting quarterbacks. If LeSean McCoy were to go down, Williams and Taylor could be a positively devastating combo on play action, the option, and swing passes.

He's the clear handcuff to Shady, and I think it's possible he carves out enough of a role to get some bye-week flex consideration on his own. He may get extra work early in the season until McCoy is confidently healthy, which makes him a nice stash at the end of your drafts. With his current ADP at 277, he costs practically nothing in most leagues, and has the chance to return way more than that for your fantasy football teams.
