By fantasy points allowed to each position, Williams faces the 5th-toughest defense against WRs and Boston faces the 14th-toughest defense against WRs, so Denzel Boston has the softer matchup.
Each projection already accounts for the opponent, so a soft matchup is a tiebreaker, not a reason to bench the higher projection.
Over his recent games Antonio Williams has drawn 17% of his team's targets, and Denzel Boston 25% of his team's targets.
Denzel Boston has the bigger role, and volume is the steadiest thing a projection rests on.
