Which of these 2 players do you prefer this year and which do you prefer moving forward?
Hillis will be given an immediate opportunity and only has to compete with a player whose coaching staff has gone out of their way to prevent giving a large workload to, while Williams has to compete with 2 veterans just to get carries, but could easily either outperform their aging legs or be the only healthy back on the roster after a few weeks, plus he plays on a much better offense.
Who gets more carries, and I suppose more importantly, who puts up better stats and why? What do you expect out of each player?
Beyond this season, which player do you expect to receive significant carries first (let's just assume for the sake of this argument that one of the 2 will)?
