Latest takes
“Christian Watson got the bag this offseason and should be considered the clear WR1 for the Green Bay Packers. Watson deserved the pay day as a he proved that he can handle this role last year. Last season, in Weeks 8-18, he was the WR21 in fantasy points per game with an 18.2% target share, 61.1 receiving yards per game, 2.67 yards per route run, a 23.9% first-read share, and 0.122 first downs per route run (per Fantasy Points Data).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 29“Christian Watson managed a WR19 finish in PPR points per game last year while returning from a 2024 ACL tear. Now fully healthy, he’s positioned to lead a thinner Packers receiving corps. Green Bay reinforced their confidence by signing Watson to a four-year, $92 million extension in June.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 29“Christian Watson tore the ACL in his right knee on January 5th, 2025. He made his season debut for the Packers on October 26th, 2025.”

“We’ve seen receivers like Christian Watson or Garrett Wilson go ballistic in the past, and those types of performances will keep you competitive in leagues where the point totals will always be higher.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 27“Christian Watson’s description on our website calls him a “classic talent-versus-durability bet,” and that couldn’t be more accurate. Akin to Rashee Rice above, Watson’s inclusion isn’t a matter of me questioning his hands, concentration or physical abilities — far from it.”
Evan Tarracciano· Aug 26“Christian Watson is one of the best value bets on the board because his draft cost still doesn’t match his 2026 role. In 10 games last year, he posted 611 yards, six touchdowns, and 17.5 yards per catch after missing seven weeks with an ACL tear.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 25“Christian Watson (WR – GB) | ADP: 71.2 ( WR 30) Last season, Christian Watson was the WR15 on a points-per-game basis among wide receivers with at least nine games played. He averaged 13.2 PPR fantasy points per contest, despite averaging only 5.5 targets per outing after missing the first seven weeks recovering from a torn ACL.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 25“Christian Watson has never been healthy for a full season, but when he’s out there, he gets targeted plenty. In the off chance he plays a full season, Watson could have a massive season.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 23“With Romeo Doubs signing with the New England Patriots, this has more than cleared the way for Christian Watson to be the No. 1 WR in the Packers’ offense. Of course, Watson needs to stay healthy, though, which has been easier said than done.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 18“Christian Watson is one of the easiest players in fantasy football to label as risky. He has missed time in every NFL season, sat out the first seven weeks last year, and has never produced more than 620 receiving yards.”
Javier Manzanera· Aug 14“The Jets have not added any talent at wide receiver that will truly threaten Wilson’s targets, and if he starts 2026 like he started 2025, he will be on pace for 150+ targets, 1,200+ yards, and 12+ touchdowns, which will make him a league-winning pick as WR19!!” – Adam Dove ( The Fantasy Couriers ) Christian Watson (WR – GB) “With Romeo Doubs gone and Tucker Kraft working his way back from injury, Christian Watson has a clear path to more targets.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“Christian Watson (WR – GB) Going as the WR29, 65th overall, one analyst has him as high as WR20 and would consider him as early as round four.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 10“On a recent podcast, I touted Packers WR Christian Watson as a high-upside player worth pursuing. The FantasyPros social media team clipped part of my Watson spiel and posted it on several platforms. An overwhelming number of the replies cited Watson’s extensive injury history – he’s missed 20 games in his four NFL seasons – and rejected the premise that Watson was worth drafting.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 9“This season, the team WR1 picks are going in the WR3 range or later: DJ Moore, Mike Evans, Carnell Tate, Christian Watson, Marvin Harrison Jr, Brian Thomas Jr, Alec Pierce, and KC Concepcion.”
Rich Hribar· Aug 6“Fantasy Football Research & Advice Fantasy Football Expert Rankings 2026 Fantasy Football Draft Kit Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer Fantasy Football Value Players to Target Christian Watson (WR – GB) ADP: 65 | (WR30) The biggest knock on Watson is health”

“Bhayshul Tuten will share carries with Chris Rodriguez Jr. , but Tuten is the more explosive of the two and could catch passes.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 29“Bhayshul Tuten (RB – JAX) Sometimes there are players the industry rates much higher whom I avoid purely on my gut instinct. Bhayshul Tuten fits that mold. I understand the reason for optimism when you look at Tuten from a top-down perspective.”
Evan Tarracciano· Aug 28“Bhayshul Tuten (RB – JAC) Going as the RB25, around the 59th overall pick, right in the heart of the running back dead zone, Tuten carries real explosiveness that didn’t fully show up in his rookie season, which both analysts attribute more to a conservative, ball-security-focused approach than a lack of talent.”

“Bhayshul Tuten (RB – JAC) “My answer really depends on my team build. In a vacuum, it’s Bhayshul Tuten .”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 27“Bhayshul Tuten has enormous upside in 2026, if he can separate himself from the pack. Tuten is currently listed as the co-starter atop Jacksonville’s RB depth chart with Chris Rodriguez, yet it is Tuten that Jags HC Liam Coen has raved about at every possible point imaginable.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 23“Still, Rodriguez is competing for backfield touches with second-year pro Bhayshul Tuten , and Rodriguez could realistically pace the backfield in carries or at least carve out a fantasy-friendly role as a goal-line option.”
Josh Shepardson· Aug 19“Even though I have brought his name up all offseason, calling Bhayshul Tuten a “must-have” on May 8th, he is the perfect back for this article.”
Ellis Johnson· Aug 19“Tuten is an explosive play waiting to happen. He is 5-foot-9 and 209 pounds, and ran a 4.32-second 40-yard dash at the combine.”
Ellis Johnson· Aug 11“Round 12: Chris Rodriguez (RB – JAX) The Jaguars have Bhayshul Tuten as the primary ball-carrier, but Chris Rodriguez Jr.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 5“Bhayshul Tuten (JAC) — ECR: RB25 | Projection Rank: RB23 | Projected FPTS: 193.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 5“Last yr among 35 RBs w/ at least 25 RZ rush att (per @FantasyPtsData ) Sure… Chris Rodriguez was 6th in rushing success % & had the 13th-lowest stuff % BUT… Bhayshul Tuten was 4th BEST in rushing success % & had the 4th-lowest stuff %.”
Mike Anderson· Aug 3“Rodriguez will remain a worry for Tuten at the goal line and to his overall touch count until we see his role fleshed out this season, but if he can be the clear lead guy, he has the talent to match Etienne’s RB13 finish last year in fantasy points per game.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 28“This could be the big breakout season for Tuten, who, on a per-touch basis, flashed the immense talent that I really liked when he was in college.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 28“With Travis Etienne Jr. now in New Orleans, there are now more than 250 vacated touches in Jacksonville for Bhayshul Tuten and new running back addition Chris Rodriguez Jr.”
Ryan Kirksey· Jul 24“The Bhayshul Tuten hype train has only continued to grow this offseason. Despite the threat of newly acquired Chris Rodriguez, Tuten’s ADP has been on a steady rise this summer.”
