BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Early in Green Bay's Week 4 game against the Vikings, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson exited with an ankle injury. The good news is it sounds like it won't be too long of an absence, but he will miss at least this week's game against the Rams.
Two names to target off the wire with Watson out are Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks. Wicks is probably the priority after he was targeted a team-high 13 times against the Vikings, catching five passes for 78 yards and two touchdowns.
Packers target shares with Dontayvion Wicks on the field the last two seasons (395 routes):
Dontayvion Wicks: 24%
Jayden Reed: 17%
Romeo Doubs: 16%
Tucker Kraft: 10%
Christian Watson: 2%There is a *chance* he is the best WR in Green Bay.

But Doubs saw plenty of usage as well. He was targeted eight times, though he only managed four catches for 39 yards. He might not be a league winner, but his current role should ensure he has a decent fantasy floor going forward. Add him off the wire in 12-team leagues.
