They know what Williams offers, Dillon could be the 1st and 2nd down back with Williams being in his usual role He gets asked questions and answers 🤷♂️ it’s not like lafleur comes off the practice field and demands a microphone to talk about AJD. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jones has consistently proven to be far superior to Williams in almost every facet. not debatable Williams has a 93% catch rate (13/14) this year vs. Jones' 64% (18/28). 87% vs. 72% last year. Would you say Williams is a far superior pass catcher? If so, that's a pretty big facet. As you know, RB receptions lead to more fantasy points than RB carries.

I think Dillon would be used just to give him a breather in between series, doubt he gets 12 touches unless theyre running out the clock at the end. Pass blocking for Rodgers is important to them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGDDYKWL 1,130 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Oh, well if the coaches said Williams is as good as Jones, well then... Lol. Jones is the far superior talent. That is not debatable. Doesn't mean JWill can't or won't be very productive if Jones misses time, but Jones is an elite talent. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LongBalls 1,193 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 We already know GB loves Williams; I don't even think that's a question. We've had the conversation over many seasons and he's usually pretty involved even with Jones at full health. I would be shocked if Williams doesn't eat most of the volume here if Jones sits; they absolutely trust him to protect Rodgers. We've all seen enough of NFL coaches to know that pass protection will likely be the major factor. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And have they led to more points for Williams than Jones? it’s a nice stat for JW- but he mostly catches designed dumpoffs- and has received half as many targets. I’m not trying to knock jamaal- He’s a trusted pass protector and can spell their stud rb1 when needed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with this but Williams is really good. He can be a top 10ish back if Jones misses time. If he was in the right situation I could definitely see him being a top 10 back. One of the many reasons I like Jones so much is because is because Williams was both a cheap and productive handcuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly, those stats that were quoted are nothing more than a function of Williams get looks in the flats or screens, he ain't out there running WR routes like Jones does--30 yards plus downfield. Williams also sucks at pass pro compared to Jones...still he is the back to start IF Jones can't play. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tomei7 591 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Jamal Williams is a decent RB, but let’s not get carried away here, Jamal is not in the same boat as Aaron. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Air yards: Jones - 76 Williams - 13 Adot: average air yards per target Jones - 2.71 Williams - 0.93 Jones is targeted down field. Williams is strictly check down making it easier for him to catch, thus, higher catch rate. Jones is a better pass catcher as they are willing to target him down field in coverage. 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fantasymad 377 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 They better be smart and sit him for a week. Aggravation or overcompensation can lead to much more serious injury. Just call him out already GB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST. STEVEN 4,173 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Unless this is an unbelievably minor strain, then he is 100% sitting. Pack med staff is super cautious. Terrible to lose a super juicy matchup, but better to not have him battling this thing for weeks ahead. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PackerBacker555 943 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 They will probably sit him but this is no push over game. David bahktiari being OUT also hurts value big time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not true. But Jones is just as good, and his receiving stats bear out the fact that he’s used more often and on deeper routes. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
