Fantasy Tiers

Bhayshul Tuten: Tier 5 (Deep League) RB (ranked #58 at the position). Javonte Williams: Tier 2 (Strong Starter) RB (ranked #12 at the position). Among the top 50 running backs this season, Bhayshul Tuten is producing at 25% of elite pace and Javonte Williams at 64%. That ranking gap means Javonte Williams carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Bhayshul Tuten vs Javonte Williams: The Full Breakdown

There is a real production gap between these two running backs. Javonte Williams (Dallas Cowboys) averaged 14.1 PPG over 16 games in 2025, outscoring Bhayshul Tuten (Jacksonville Jaguars, 5.6 PPG) by 8.5 points per week. That separation would need a significant matchup swing to overcome.

The per-game difference of 8.5 points favors Javonte Williams, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one running back to the other.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Bhayshul Tuten ran for 307 yards and 5 touchdowns; Javonte Williams posted 1201 and 11. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

One scheduling note: Bhayshul Tuten is off Week 7 and Javonte Williams Week 14. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Javonte Williams is a buy in trades where the other manager is chasing upside at a different position. Bhayshul Tuten is a hold unless you can flip him for a positional upgrade elsewhere on your roster. Dynasty outlook: Bhayshul Tuten (age 24) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds. Javonte Williams (age 26) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open.
