Who Should I Start? Parker Washington or Troy Franklin

Monday, May 4, 5:25 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington was perhaps the biggest key to unlocking former first overall pick Trevor Lawrence, and yet that isn't reflected in his current dynasty value. Lawrence was the fantasy QB1 over the final ten weeks of the season, coinciding with a Washington breakout stretch that saw the third-year receiver catch four of his career-high five touchdowns while averaging 12.6 Half-PPR points per game. The Jaguars boast one of the deepest groups of pass-catchers in the league, but with two-way player Travis Hunter in a category of his own, the majority of the passing offense is expected to run through Washington, Brian Thomas Jr., and Jakobi Meyers in 2026. Despite being five years younger than Meyers and topping Thomas in nearly every statistical category in 2025, Washington ranks well below both as RotoBaller's dynasty WR47. The last time the Jaguars took the field, in a Wild Card loss to the Bills, Washington led the team with 10 targets for seven receptions, 107 yards, and a touchdown, and with that sort of week-winning upside in his back pocket, he may be one of the most undervalued assets in the game.
