Fantasy Football Sleeper Spotlight: Mike Williams
No, I am not talking about the Mike Williams who is trying to shed the bust label with the Seahawks. Though I am quietly rooting that he can turn his career around, I am more excited about the Tampa Bay rookie WR that shares the same name.
Tampa Baysโ Mike Williams is a 6โ2โณ WR out of Syracuse that has been turning heads in training camp. He is slated to start for the Bucs and could easily emerge as their No. 1 passing option.
He had a nifty grab in Tampaโs preseason opener that went for 30 yards. As he gets more familiar with the offense and the speed of the NFL, as well as building a stronger rapport with Josh Freeman, that type of big play should happen much more frequently.

Williams is going for a steal now according to hisย Mock Draft Central ADPย of 213 (75th WR taken). As the buzz gets out, look for him to fly up the draft boards. Williams would have been a more highly coveted player if it werenโt for his off-the-field issues.
As long as he keeps his nose clean, he will be able to showcase his immense talent. He should provide good WR depth that could end up outperforming some of your starters. He is even more valuable in deep keeper leagues.
What are your expectations for Tampaโs Mike Williams?
