BALLER MOVE: Bench in all formats outside of DFS where Wicks can be a worthwhile dart throw
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: The Green Bay wide receiver room is crowded, like trying to pick a spot in New York City on a Saturday night--options everywhere, but hard to lock down where to go. With Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and rising tight end Tucker Kraft all vying for looks, consistent targets are tough to come by.
For Dontayvion Wicks, it’s an even tougher battle. He’s flashed some talent, but in Week 8, he managed just two targets against a weak Jaguars secondary. Heading into Week 9, he’s more of a stash, hoping for that one breakout game or maybe a bump in targets if someone else misses time.

26% CeeDee Lamb
26% Amon-Ra St. Brown
26% Tee Higgins
26% George Pickens— Dwain McFarland (@dwainmcfarland) October 31, 2024
The Packers face a dream matchup against the Lions secondary in Week 9, but predicting Wicks’ involvement week-to-week is a roll of the dice.
