Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into fantasy football stuff, and a big question I had was: Breece Hall or Kyren Williams? I wanted to figure out who to target in my drafts, so I did some serious digging. Here’s what I went through:
The Initial Look
First, I just watched a bunch of games. You know, just getting a feel for how they play. Breece Hall, man, he’s coming off that ACL injury, but when he’s healthy, he looks explosive. Kyren Williams, he surprised everyone last year. He just kept getting the ball and putting up points.
Digging into the Stats
Watching is good, but I needed numbers. I looked at everything:
- Rushing yards: How many yards are they actually getting on the ground?
- Receptions: How often are they catching passes? Big deal in PPR leagues!
- Touchdowns: Obviously, who’s getting into the end zone more?
- Snap Counts: How much are they actually on the field? More snaps, more opportunities.
- Targets: Even if they don’t catch the ball every time, how often are they being thrown to?
I spent hours, literally hours, looking at game logs, season totals, and even some of those fancy “advanced stats” websites. I felt like a detective, piecing it all together.
The Injury Factor
This was a big one. Hall’s ACL is a concern. I looked up recovery rates, typical return timelines, everything. Williams had some minor stuff last year, too, so I checked on that as well. It’s not just if they get injured, but how it impacts their performance when they come back.
Team Situations Matter
I also had to think about their teams. Are the offenses good? Do they have a good offensive line? A bad line can make even a great running back look average. I looked at the Jets and Rams overall, their coaches, their other players – the whole picture.
Putting It All Together
After all that, I made spreadsheets. Seriously, spreadsheets! I compared their stats side-by-side, I made projections for this season, I even factored in my league’s scoring system. It was intense.
My Conclusion (For Now!)
It’s tough, it is a really tough call. Based on my research both are incredible, that I decided to grab and use them both! . This stuff changes all the time, but that’s where I’m at right now. It will help the team for sure. I feel good having those players on my fantasy team this year.
I’ll probably keep tweaking my rankings as I learn more, but this deep dive definitely helped me get a much better handle on these two guys. Let me tell you, after this I feel so much better, I just have to do my research.
