By fantasy points allowed to each position, Williams faces the 2nd-toughest defense against QBs and Jones faces the 14th-toughest defense against QBs, so Daniel Jones 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.
These numbers are in PPR. Full PPR adds a point per catch, so it helps whichever player sees more targets.
Switch between PPR, Half PPR and Standard on the board above to rescore both players from the same sources.

Each figure is the average of the projection sources that carry the player this week: StatChasers, Sleeper, ESPN, numberFire, FFToday and the betting markets (sportsbook player props). Caleb Williams is projected by 6 of them and Daniel Jones by 6.
A source with no number for a player is left out of the average rather than counted as a zero.
