Darious Williams is a career quality starter β a defensive back whose body of work places Williams in the top quarter of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Williams's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A high-end defensive back defined as much by excellent availability over their career as by their on-field impact (top 20% all-time). Coaches and teammates could count on them being available.
Worth 74 points of value above a freely-available replacement cornerback β top 34% of all 4,642 ranked at the position. 5 of 7 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +14.8 on average.See board β

Darious inherited the Jacksonville Jaguars DB room from Tyson Campbell (2021β2024), and handed it to Montaric Brown (2022β2025).
