Jamaal Williams, RB, Green Bay Packers

FanDuel Price: $5,600

DraftKings Price: $4,900

It's sounding more and more likely that Ty Montgomery will sit out on Sunday, leaving Jamaal Williams as the defacto feature back for the Green Bay Packers. With both Aaron Jones and Montgomery going down in Week 10, Williams saw 21 touches for 74 total yards, and should be in for another heavy workload against the Baltimore Ravens.

However, despite the volume and low price point on both sites, it's hard to get excited about Williams. The Ravens' numbers against the run don't necessarily jump out, but when Brandon Williams is in the lineup, they've allowed over 100 rushing yards just once in five games. And with Brett Hundley at the helm, the Packers offense as a whole has sputtered on most occasions, and that's unlikely to change against an elite Ravens passing defense that ranks third by numberFire's marks, and has the sixth-best adjusted sack rate. The Packers currently have the third-worst implied team total on the board (17.75).

As for Williams himself, he's also not the most athletic talent, and as Rotoworld's Rich Hribar points out, he's yet to have a run go for 10 or more yards this season.

If you're looking for value at running back, Rex Burkhead has much more upside in what should be a high-scoring affair between the Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots.
