Christian Watson News
Wednesday, September 30, 7:26 PM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson has been fantastic this season, catching 17 passes for 284 yards and four touchdowns through three games. He has at least eight targets in all three games this season, and he also has a four-game touchdown streak dating back to last regular season. The Packers have endured their fair share of struggles en route to a 1-2 start, but Watson has been able to maintain a very sizable role. He ranks as the overall WR5 in PPR leagues this season, putting him in must-start territory for every week regardless of matchup. Managers should have full confidence rolling him out as a mid-to-low WR1 for Week 4 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are also trending in the wrong direction with a 0-3 start to the year.

Dontayvion Wicks News
Saturday, October 3, 2:47 AM
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks will see an expanded role with his offense in Week 4, as Eagles WR1 DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out with a hamstring injury for the game. Smith was targeted 27 times across the team's first three contests, meaning there's a significant target vacuum to be spread around to the team's other players. Additionally, Eagles TE1 Dallas Goedert (knee) won't be able to suit up for this contest, meaning Wicks could see heavy target volume. The Rams are one of the NFL's best offenses, and could force Philly into a pass-heavy game script. The matchup is a bit tough for Wicks, though -- the former Packer will face off with cornerback Trent McDuffie on the outside, though opposite-side starting CB Jaylen Watson (shoulder) has been ruled out for the game. Wicks is anything but a guaranteed high scorer, but he can be started as a low-end WR2 based on projected volume alone.
