BALLER MOVEMENT: Roster Watson, but bench him in all formats outside of DFS where he’s a worthwhile dart throw

POSITION VALUE:WR5

ANALYSIS: The Packers’ wide receiver room is packed like cheese in a Wisconsin deli. With Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks and rising tight end Tucker Kraft, it’s difficult to find reliable targets.

For Christian Watson, the challenge is real. He showed a lot of potential, but in Week 8 he managed a modest four catches for 39 yards against a shaky Jaguars secondary. As we look ahead to Week 9, Watson is more of a backup player, banking on that one breakout game or a potential spike in targets if injuries clear the way.

The potential for Watson is there, but given the strength of their wide receiver room and tight end Tucker Kraft, it’s difficult to predict weekly volume with any degree of consistency.
