Demetrius Williams

Baltimore Ravens

Bad Things Happen in Threes

Last October, after seven games, Demetrius Williams was put on IR due to an Achilles injury and the year before that he only played nine games (again, due to injury).  Can he complete the trifecta this season?    


Success in the NFL is two parts skill and one part opportunity.  We're sure Williams has at least one part skill and were not quite sure about the 2nd part just yet, but the one part opportunity is staring him down.  Derrick Mason opted for retirement following the death of his close friend Steve McNair (RIP).  The Ravens hit the market for another WR and signed former 2004 receiving dynamo and Titan Drew Bennett.  48 hours and a swollen knee later, he retired, too.  So we have two retirements and two years of injury out of Williams, and you know what they say about bad things and the number three...

With a nickname like Spider-man, the Ravens can't go wrong, right?


Williams has tremendous raw potential.  His hands earned the arachnophobic nickname during his days as a Duck at the University of Oregon.  He has the size and frame (6'2" and we hear he bulked up to about 215 pounds this past off-season) to be a dominant possession WR.  He was drafted in the 4th round in 2006 and has played sparingly behind Mason and Mark Clayton in an offensive scheme that has not been heavy on passing yards, mostly due to not having a prolific passer the last two years.  In his only full season in the league (as a rookie and with a stud QB - McNair),  he caught 22 balls for 396 yards (18 yards per reception) and two TDs - all career highs and very encouraging numbers.

2009 Fantasy Outlook

Williams is now relevant fantasy talk.  Bring up his name around the water cooler and after an uncomfortable silence and a couple of eye rolls, you'll quickly realize that you are way too involved in this hobby.  


The Ravens had playoff success breaking in their new QB gently and pounding the football, and given the loss of their former Pro-Bowl possession WR, they figure to continue that trend.  Their No. 2 overall defense gives them that flexibility.  No matter that 2nd year QB Joe Flacco should be ready to air it out a little more, it's hard to envision this team departing from a formula that got them to the post-season in '08, so don't expect the Ravens to deviate from the passing game that ranked 30th in passing attempts and 28th in passing yards.


He looks and feels 100% healthy now during training camp (he still had a little gait and limp during OTAs and Minicamp a few months ago, but he's gotten rid of that).  He's got potential as the Ravens #2 target.  Mark Clayton is not a possession guy, and while he should end up being Flacco's #1 target, Williams could emerge with the most receptions and TDs in the red zone given his size.  Williams is a late addition to our sleeper bucket.  We would venture a late round flier on this one to see if his college nickname can translate to the NFL.  Make him the 114th WR off of draft boards this summer.

Injury Report

Red

He’s missed 16 games over the last two years, is recovering from an Achilles injury, and while it’s been reported that he is “100%” recovered, he’s going to have to prove it with his play to shake this red alert.

Breaking News

Demetrius Williams fighting WR3 job expand +

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demetrius Williams dropped to the WR4 position behind Kelley Washington to start the season after dealing with various injuries during the preseason.

Pyro's Take:

Williams has the talent, and the speed, but lacks the toughness to stay on the field long enough to show it. If you've been holding onto him on your fantasy team, check the waiver wire and drop him for someone who actually plays.

Demetrius Williams injured again expand +

Baltimore Ravens WR Demetrius Williams sat out practice Tuesday morning with a hamstring injury.

Pyro's Take:

My goodness. D-Will got back on the field for one day and couldn't stretch his string into two? If this kid could just stay healthy, he'd be a nice option for Flacco down the field throughout the year, but that "if" is starting to become a little too large for fantasy owners to take a chance.

Williams returns to practice expand +

Baltimore Ravens WR Demetrius Williams returned to practice Monday after suffering a right hamstring injury last Tuesday.

Pyro's Take:

We'd love to see this kid standing upright for more than a week at a time, but that just doesn't seem possible. When healthy, he's fast as hell and would let strong-armed Joe Flacco open up the field more, but it hasn't worked that way thus far. Keep the kid on the waiver wire until he proves he can deal with the wear and tear of NFL football.

Demetrius Williams misses morning practice due to injury expand +

Baltimore Ravens WR Demetrius Williams was held out of Monday morning's practice due to "twinges of pain in his right hamstring."

Pyro's Take:

So much for Williams being 100 percent healthy. He downplayed the injury as nothing serious. "I'm just being careful. It's nothing that's going to keep me out." We sure hope so, because he needs to stay healthy this preseason if he's going to have any impact at all during the season.

Demeterius Williams suffers concussion expand +

Baltimore Ravens' oft-injured WR Demetrius Williams missed Friday morning's workout with a "minor concussion."

Pyro's Take:

Williams has become a head case, no pun intended. The guy can't stay on the field longer than Mary Poppins. Even though this was a minor ordeal, it still shows the fragility of Williams, and buyer be very aware of his injury history.

Demetrius Williams hopes for healthy year expand +

The Ravens fourth-year WR has impressed in practice and appears to be 100 percent healthy after undergoing surgery on his Achilles heal in November. The limp he had in minicamp is gone.

Pyro's Take:

This is most likely the last chance Baltimore will give Williams. He only played in 7 games last year before injuring his Achilles and he needs to stay healthy this year.

Demetrius Williams tweaks hamstring expand +

Ravens WR Demetrius Williams tweaked his right hamstring in practice on Sunday and is out a few days.

Pyro's Take:

This isn't good news for Williams, who is very injury prone. He is coming off a year in which he missed most of the season with an Achilles injury. His speed is his game so he needs that hamstring healthy to be a threat.
