2025 Fantasy Outlook
Metric | Broncos 2024 | Potential Dallas 2025 | Fantasy Implication |
Touch Volume | ~11.4/game | Similar if he wins committee share | ~195–200 touches (rush + rec) → 1,100–1,200 scrimmage yards |
Efficiency | 3.7 ypc | Minimal improvement expected | Yardage stability; rushing TDs 4–6, receiving 1–3 |
Receiving Work | 70 targets | Expect this number to drop | 30–45 receptions → 200–300 receiving yards |
Committee Risk | High | Remains mixed | Volume unclear → RB4 with upside in favorable weeks |
Headliner Take
Javonte Williams posted below average efficiency in 2024 (3.7 ypc), but showed versatility with 52 catches. In Dallas, his upside depends entirely on securing a 50%+ role in a crowded backfield. If he does, he can approach a solid PPR RB3, but committee risk keeps him firmly in the RB4 tier unless something improves dramatically in camp/preseason. Personally at that point of the draft I would rather shoot for a RB that has higher upside than a guy like Williams that hasn't been the same for years due to injuries.
