Bo Melton Switching to Cornerback

Wednesday, July 23, 4:06 PM

Green Bay Packers fourth-year veteran Bo Melton is officially switching from wide receiver to cornerback, according to NFL.com. The 2022 seventh-round pick out of Rutgers was originally selected by the Seattle Seahawks but signed with Green Bay after being released following training camp. He did not appear in a game during his rookie season, but he has tallied 24 receptions for 309 yards and one touchdown over the last two seasons (22 games). Now at cornerback, he will likely have a tough time earning snaps, but crazier things have happened. Based on these developments, it's safe to drop him in the deepest of dynasty fantasy football leagues

Jordan Watkins has Been Standing Out

Friday, June 13, 12:31 PM

San Francisco 49ers rookie fourth-round wide receiver Jordan Watkins hasn't been perfect in offseason workouts this spring, but The Athletic's Matt Barrows writes that he has stood out in the way that Ricky Pearsall (hamstring) did a year ago. He took a number of snaps with the first-team offense with Pearsall, Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Jauan Jennings (calf) sidelined, showcasing his speed and fluidity in routes. Watkins doesn't break stride when catching the ball, which makes him an asset on crossing routes that are such a big part of head coach Kyle Shanahan's offense. The 23-year-old also has thick legs and a big lower body, which should help him break tackles and pick up yards after the catch. Watkins had nine total touchdowns at Ole Miss in 2024, and while he probably won't get on the field much in his rookie season, he could be an immediate factor on special teams.
