Mike Williams will excel in an offensive system that prioritizes a vertical passing game and opportunities for boundary receivers to win contested catches against single coverage.
He projects as an immediate starter as a boundary 'X' receiver, and has the ceiling to develop into a dominant red-zone and contested-catch target.
His value diminishes substantially in a short-area, quick-rhythm passing offense that rarely targets receivers downfield.
Williams's size, strength, and contested-catch ability make him a prime fit for schemes that want to isolate a big-bodied receiver on the outside.
Selected #7 overall in Round 1 of the 2017 NFL Draft by Los Angeles Chargers out of Clemson.
