Deep Pick choiceDraft Jameson Williams over Sam LaPorta if both are on the board. This is a cross-position call, so raw WR and TE points are not the tiebreaker: Jameson Williams is WR11 and No. 23 overall, 53 spots ahead of Sam LaPorta at TE5 after the board weighs replacement value, weekly startability, ceiling, role resilience, and playoff runway. Sam LaPorta remains a strong roster-build alternative, but Jameson Williams is the cleaner pick unless verified opportunity falls below 26.7% or the accepted team-scoring band changes. Rebuild the matchup layer if opponent personnel, coaching, projected strength, or player usage changes materially.

LaPorta’s strongest real path is sustaining that extreme role command to outperform Williams’s median through consistent targets.
