Okay, let’s talk about these two guys, D’Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams. I’ve been messing around with fantasy football, trying to figure out which one of these dudes is the better pick for my team. So, I started digging into their stats and all that jazz.
First, I checked out Jamaal Williams. This guy’s been around the block, you know? I looked at his fantasy points for the season, and the numbers weren’t exactly eye-popping. He was ranked way down the list, something like 324th overall and 74th among running backs. I mean, come on, that’s not going to cut it if you’re trying to win your league. He’s only been averaging about 2 fantasy points a game. I looked at his last three games, and it wasn’t much better—just 25 rushing yards and no touchdowns.
Then I moved on to D’Andre Swift. I wanted to see if he was any better. I started looking at his performance, trying to find some kind of edge. His name kept popping up in all these fantasy football articles and forums. Everybody’s got an opinion on this guy, whether to draft him or start him.
So, I decided to do a little experiment. I started using those free online tools that help you decide who to start or draft. You just plug in the names, and they spit out a recommendation. Every time I put in Swift vs. Williams, the tool kept telling me to go with Swift. I mean, it was consistent.
I went on a few different websites and even those expert fantasy football analysts. They all said the same. They looked at all the numbers, all the metrics, and they all pointed to Swift.
I also checked some recent news, just to make sure both guys were healthy and actually playing. And sure enough, Williams was the one who had some issues. I even looked at those PPR projections, you know, points per reception, and even there, Williams was projected to do worse.
And then I dug into some more detailed stuff, like salary cap values in those daily fantasy games like DraftKings and FanDuel. I saw that a guy like Justin Herbert was priced at $6,000 on DraftKings, and I figured, if Herbert is going for that much, Swift must be a decent value compared to Williams.
After all this, I started putting together some mock lineups, just testing things out. I tried different combinations, different strategies. And you know what? Every time I had Swift in my lineup, my projected points were higher. It was like, the numbers don’t lie.
- So, after all this digging and messing around, I’ve come to a conclusion. If you’re in a fantasy football league and you’re trying to decide between D’Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams, I’d say go with Swift.
- The numbers, the experts, the tools, they all seem to agree.
- Of course, anything can happen in football. But based on what I’ve seen, Swift is the smarter play.
My Conclusion
This whole thing has been a bit of a headache, but it’s been kind of fun, too. It’s like being a detective, trying to crack the case of the better running back. And you know what? I think I’ve cracked it.
