5 years agoWith the loss of Antonio Brown to the Oakland Raiders offense, wide receiver Tyrell Williams will now step into the vacant WR1 role. He profiles better as a complementary player, but he is now the team's top option at wideout with J.J. Nelson moving up the depth chart to the WR2 role. Williams' value takes a hit now that opposing defenses won't have to worry about covering an All-Pro receiver on the other side of the field. There are still enough weapons to help draw coverage away from Williams, but the threat of AB would have opened up a lot more one-on-one battles. The 28-year-old isn't a recommended play in the Raiders Monday night tilt versus the Broncos, and he remains a WR4/5 for the rest of the campaign.--Riley Mrack - RotoBaller
