BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 4% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks has showcased big-play ability in his rookie year, but he is yet to secure a consistent enough role to offer any fantasy value. If he can garner more volume, he could become a valuable depth piece for fantasy managers in the postseason.
Christian Watson injured his hamstring last week. He's was ruled out for Week 14's game against the Giants. Wicks has been one of the most efficient receivers in the NFL with the opportunities he's been given. He averages 2.00 yards per route run, which is the 28th-best number among receivers this season. He's averaging 10.4 yards per target -- 12th among receivers -- and 16.3 yards per reception, which is the 11th-best.
Over his last five games, Wicks is averaging just over four targets per game, three receptions, and 52.4 yards per game. That was with Watson active. It sounds as though Watson's injury could end up being a multi-week one, which would put Wicks on the field a lot more than he's accustomed to. Without Watson, Wicks should be close to a full-time player. Jayden Reed has been used exclusively out of the slot, which could mean Wicks will be one of the receivers on the field in two receiver sets. He's worth adding in case Watson's injury is a multi-week one.
