Will Chargers WR Mike Williams Win Offensive Rookie of the Year?

What are the chances that, with the 7th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Chargers drafted the player that will eventually go on to win the Offensive Rookie of the Year (OROY) Award? Not great, actually.

Before the draft, NFL.com had ranked Mike Williams as possibly the most likely rookie to win the award. Now, he’s ranked 4th amongst offensive rookies, and for good reason...

Williams is walking into an offense that will already feature Philip Rivers, Melvin Gordon, Hunter Henry, Antonio Gates, and a returning Keenan Allen.
