STM Take

Williams's climb from STTM #59 tier 8 in 2024 to #14 tier 4 in 2025 is the largest rank jump on the entire RB board, 45 spots in one offseason move. His 2021 PFWA All-Rookie team year and the 2020 PFF college tape are real talent markers; the four seasons of tier-8 NFL play in between are the warning. Dallas's offense made him relevant again.

Williams was born in Wallace, North Carolina, won four straight state titles at Wallace-Rose Hill (graduating valedictorian with a 4.6 GPA), and played three years at North Carolina. He set Pro Football Focus's then-highest rushing grade ever (95.9) in 2020. Denver took him 35th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. He played four seasons in Denver before signing with Dallas in 2025.

Strengths

45-spot rank jump from 2024 to 2025, the largest positive move at any position on this year's board.
193 career catches for 1,103 yards and 7 receiving TDs; the pass-game profile travels through team changes.

Concerns

4.2 career YPC on 3,595 yards is the lowest among all top-15 RBs in 2025; the volume case lives entirely on workload.
Career history before 2025 reads tier 8 four times in five seasons; the 2025 rebound is a single year against a long down trend.

What to watch: Whether Dallas's run-heavy game scripts hold up in 2026; the entire tier-4 case is volume-dependent.
