BALLER MOVE: Bench in all formats outside of DFS where Watson can be an inexpensive dice roll in tournaments
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Green Bay’s wide receiver room is like a bustling downtown on a Saturday night--full of options but tough to decide where to go. Between Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, and the up-and-coming tight end Tucker Kraft, snagging consistent targets is like trying to catch a cab in rush hour.
For Christian Watson, it’s even trickier; he’s yet to see more than five targets in a game this season, meaning he’s usually banking on one big play to make his fantasy day worthwhile.
Adam Stenavich asked if #Packers need to get the football more to Christian Watson: "Yeah, we do. It's as simple as that."

As we roll into Week 8, Watson is more of a bench stash, hoping for that one breakout game or an uptick in targets due to someone else's misfortune.
The Packers get an absolute homerun matchup against the Jaguars secondary in Week 8, but for Watson it's difficult to project his weekly targets with any kind of consistency at this point.

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5/WR6 ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jacob Cowing could have fantasy value if a lot of things went right.
