Draft note

by John Paulsen

Early drafters have decided that Williams (No. 24 RB off the board) is going to take over from Melvin Gordon (No. 39) sooner rather than later. History shows that teams that trade up for a running back are more likely to use them as rookies, and the Broncos traded up for Williams in the second round. It may be premature to write off Gordon, who is only 28 years-old and was solid last year (986 yards rushing, 4.59 yards per carry, nine touchdowns). However, Ryan O’Halloran of the Denver Post predicted that Williams will start Week 1 since Gordon was a “complete no-show during OTAs.”

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams looked sharp in his NFL debut on Saturday evening, rushing five times for 29 yards in a 33-6 preseason win over the Minnesota Vikings. The second-round draft pick also rushed for a touchdown, but the score was nullified by a holding penalty.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said the team wanted to see Williams and his ability to break tackles and felt he was able to do that in his first preseason game. Williams is trending to be the team's Week 1 starter despite Gordon still being around. Gordon was a no-show for OTAs and the team traded up to get Williams so things are beginning to add up. It's a battle to keep an eye on this summer before drafts.
