BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens had his biggest game of the season in quarterback Russell Wilson's return to play, and they'll get a matchup against another soft pass defense when they face the New York Giants in Week 8.
George Pickens is saving Russell Wilson for box score watchers.
Second great catch of the game on an underthrown pass down field.

Pickens' talent has never really been in question -- it's always been the attitude issues and quarterback play that have held him back. He now appears to have the best quarterback he's ever played with in Wilson, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see him put up career-best numbers for the rest of the season.

Expect plenty more circus catches like these. He's also the No. 1 receiver on his team by a mile since they traded away Diontae Johnson in the offseason, so he should be a target-hog moving forward. He's in a run-heavy offense, though, which caps his upside.
He should be started in Week 8.
