It seems like year after year there is doubt surrounding Kyren Williams, and this year feels no different.
Between Blake Corum's emergence, the fumbles, the year-over-year downward trend in fantasy points per game, and Davante Adams hoarding red zone looks, it's fair to wonder if Williams' best days are behind him.
He's still the lead running back on one of the best offenses in the league, and has a proven track record of being a low-end RB1 when it's all said and done.
He's finished as the RB9 or better in each of the last three seasons, so I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a similar outcome this year.
Even with Corum eating into his workload, Williams should still be good for another 280 touch, double-digit touchdown campaign.
The Rams' offensive line also has top 10 potential, with Kevin Dotson leading the way.
All that said, Williams is currently going off boards around the end of the second round and the beginning of the third round, making him a solid value considering he's being taken as the RB12 to 15.
