No. 9 Mike Williams vs Oakland

Mike Williams doesn’t sit with a ton of catches thus far in 2018, sorry PPR league guys. That shouldn’t inhibit you from this matchup though. Williams struggled against San Francisco with just one catch but the week prior against the Rams made the most of his four catches, with 81 yards and a touchdown.

Williams is a deep threat and that’s what entices me most about him in this game. The Oakland pass defense has the fifth highest yards per pass attempt in the league, just below the Chargers funny enough, at 8.2 yds/att.

Overall, even in the win over Cleveland, the Raiders haven’t held any team to less than 100 yards receiving as a unit and have given up a touchdown in three of their four games. The Chargers have weapons and if the Raiders key in closer to the line of scrimmage, Williams and Rivers could hit paydirt.
