Latest takes
“Garrett Wilson's 395 receiving yards led the Jets despite playing only seven games. Better health from Wilson will give the team their top weapon in scoring territory.”
Josh Shepardson· Jul 1“Breece Hall reflected on how he and Garrett Wilson, both drafted together in 2022, have become some of the longest-tenured Jets and now sit in leadership meetings while still learning from veteran players, saying "it's literally crazy, but it's cool because we still sit in leadership meetings with all the older guys."”
Wyatt Grindley· Jul 1“The biggest red flag of all is all the weapons around Wilson, which he'll be fighting for targets. The Jets added great pieces to the offense, which is good for the team but not for Wilson's fantasy prospects.”
Michael Moore· Jun 24

“The knee is the first landmine, as it was significant enough last season that Wilson missed more than half the season. Wilson is practicing this offseason, but the sprain was the first significant injury of his career, and it remains to be seen how he'll bounce back.”
Michael Moore· Jun 24“Garrett Wilson finished the 2022 rookie class with 215.7 PPR points, one of the few rookies in recent years to surpass the 215-PPR-point threshold.”
Aidin Ebrahimi· Jun 8“Wilson has finished as a WR2 in 12-team leagues only one other time in his career, with his four-year averages showing a pattern of WR30-WR39 performance. Wilson still has questionable quarterback play with Geno Smith, an unexciting play-calling offensive coordinator in Frank Reich, and more target competition from newly drafted tight end Kenyon Sadiq and wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. Wilson is likely being drafted closer to his ceiling than his median outcome for 2026.”
Josh Shepardson· Jun 7“Wilson has yet to finish as a true WR1 in fantasy points per game and has an uphill climb this season, making his late third, early-fourth-round cost too steep.”
Ryan Kirksey· May 26“Wilson is coming off an injury-plagued season and faces continued quarterback uncertainty with the Jets relying on a veteran upgrade like Geno Smith (a bust with the Raiders last season) or potentially a rookie at some point in 2026.”
Ryan Kirksey· May 26“Garrett Wilson is being drafted based on his immense talent rather than his results over the past two seasons. Wilson had to record a 33 percent target share to come close to getting any fantasy return on your investment in him.”
Ryan Kirksey· May 26“While he is a phenomenal talent, Garrett Wilson finds himself in a slightly odd position with the New York Jets. The Jets are not expected to be contenders this year, but they did bring in two noteworthy pieces via the draft to compete with Wilson for downfield touches in Omar Cooper Jr. and Kenyon Sadiq. The presence of OCJ and Sadiq may limit Wilson's overall upside, while also being a part of the New York Jets doesn't help his cause either.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 13“Their rebuild just so happens to be consuming Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson, plus the addition of Sadiq and Cooper.”
Tera Roberts· Apr 28
“McMillan commanded a 23% target share for Carolina's offense, but the main problem is that Carolina doesn't want to throw the ball and instead leans heavily on its run game to move the chains on each possession. McMillan will undoubtedly lead Carolina in targets again, but that number is hard-capped.”
Evan Tarracciano· Jun 25“Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan noted that the game has slowed down for him since he first entered the league, and he feels he has a firm grasp of the playbook: "It's definitely slowed down. Obviously, second year in the playbook. I'm not a rookie anymore to where new things come flying at me. The game's a lot slower, and I got a year under my belt, 18 games, so I feel good right now."”
Wyatt Grindley· Jun 22“McMillan was quietly a fantasy star as a rookie despite Carolina's inconsistent passing attack, finishing as the WR15, averaging 8.3 non-PPR fantasy points per game. Furthermore, he was the team's best weapon in the red zone, totaling seven receiving touchdowns, more than double the next closest Panther.”

“Tetairoa McMillan (15th in total WR points last year) is going for an average auction value less than their projection.”
Evan Hoovler· Jun 19“Tetairoa McMillan's consensus ADP is WR19, whereas he's the WR11 on MFL. As a rookie last season, McMillan led the Panthers in target share by a wide margin at 25.4%, though when Jalen Coker was on the field, McMillan's target share dropped to 18.5%. McMillan can volume his way to a respectable fantasy line, but his touchdown upside could be limited given the Panthers' third-hardest schedule and Bryce Young's poor performance against winning records.”
Richard Janvrin· Jun 19“Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan is coming off a successful debut season, winning the 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year. Although McMillan was glad to win the award, he's more concerned with their team's results.”
Wyatt Grindley· Jun 16“2025 first-round receiver Tetairoa McMillian, who eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards as a rookie.”
Nikhil Mehta· Jun 13“Among rookie wide receivers in the 2025 NFL season, only three (Tetairoa McMillan, Emeka Egbuka, and Luther Burden III) managed to crack the 600 receiving yards mark.”
Aidin Ebrahimi· Jun 3“Tetaiora McMillan generated significant intrigue because of the upside tied to his profile and potential long-term role. The discussion focused on the possibility that he develops into a true featured receiving option. There was acknowledgment that younger receivers often come with volatility, but the talent and opportunity combination clearly made McMillan one of the more exciting names in this tier.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 23“Guys like Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker are better served in the short and intermediate range.”
Jeff Krisko· May 20“Instead of leaning on veterans like Davante Adams or Terry McLaurin, he prioritized players still climbing into larger roles like: Tetairoa McMillan.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 17“Tetairoa McMillan is talented enough to eventually overcome difficult environments, but rookie receivers tied to unstable quarterback situations tend to produce frustrating weekly volatility.”
Jon Machado· May 16“If Carolina continues operating a slower, balanced offense built around shorter passing concepts and limiting shootouts, McMillan may struggle to consistently produce massive fantasy totals even with strong target volume.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 9“Tetairoa McMillan already looks like Carolina's unquestioned WR1, but fantasy managers remain split on just how high the ceiling actually is. Carolina did very little to threaten McMillan's target share, and Bryce Young clearly trusted him throughout his rookie season.”
FantasyPros Staff· May 9“The 24-year-old benefitted from a stronger supporting cast, including first-round receiver Tetairoa McMillan and breakout running back Rico Dowdle.”
