BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens is slated to serve as the lead wide receiver throughout the 2024 season and should be started in all leagues as he faces the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday afternoon.
Last season Pickens posted his first 1,000-yard campaign as he tallied 1,140 yards with five scores on 63 catches. In addition, he was consistently given looks downfield as he saw 40% of the team's air yards last season which was one of the best marks at the position. He also saw a stellar 13.4-yard average depth per target.
Raise your hand if you remember what happened the one time George Pickens had an NFL-level QB against the Bengals 🙋♂️
I’ll give you a hint: he had 195 yards 👀 pic.twitter.com/jztn5W98sz

The 23-year-old should see plenty of looks from Russell Wilson on Sunday afternoon as the Steelers are without any proven No.2 option in their wide receiver room.
Also, the Falcons brought in Kirk Cousins to boost their struggling offense. Even though the Steelers have one of the best defenses in football, if Kirk Cousins can put points on the board, Pickens could be in for a big day.
