Summary

Running Back Rank: #50   
Overall: #157


Williams missed his entire rookie season because of a torn right patella tendon, suffered before the start of the season. He is right on track to be ready for the coming year, though. Williams should be full speed for the start of training camp. While he was out, Chris Wells emerged as the No. 1 back for the Cardinals, a role he should continue to serve this season. Williams will get his touches but probably more in a change-of-pace role for the Cardinals. Williams is a big-play back capable of taking it to the house every time he touches the ball. He makes plays happen in space. He also runs with some power, though, and has good vision. Williams has a lot of ability but needs to show he can stay healthy and produce in a prominent role.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
His stock is down after the breakout season of Wells, but don't forget about Williams after missing all of last year. He certainly is a very talented player that will get his chances in this offense as long as he is healthy. Plus, Wells has past injury issues, which could help the chances of Williams getting more playing time. Williams is worth a look as a No. 3 or 4 fantasy back. He has big-game potential. A season with 700 or 800 total yards and five touchdowns seems possible for Williams.

Arizona Cardinals RB Ryan Williams (knee) is on target for training camp, and he is expected to begin jogging soon. The training staff and coaching staff likely won't allow him to take part in anything more than individual drills if he is ready during the organized team activities (OTAs) in the summer. 'Next year is going to be a good year,' Williams said. 'I want to be a fan favorite, I want to be the 'X' factor, and because the coaches expect (so) much from me and they support me so much. It's a great feeling to have the coaches behind you, and when they think highly of you, you don't want to make them think otherwise.'
Fantasy Impact: Don't forget about Williams in 2012. He is a talented player that should be in the mix for carries.
