By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 7th 2024, 1:05pm EST

Pickens is the WR36 in fantasy points per game, ranking sixth in deep targets and third in red zone targets among wide receivers. Pickens has a 26.1% target share, a 46% air-yard share, 2.66 YPRR, and a 34.8% first-read share. He has been a market share maven in this passing attack. While it hasn't equated to consistent fantasy production, he has had spike week upside with three games with WR2 or better finishes. Since Week 6, Washington has had the second-highest rate of single high (65.2%). Against single high, Pickens has seen his numbers grow with a 30.7% target share, 2.96 YPRR, and a 40.2% first-read share. Washington has improved immensely as a pass defense, but they aren't a brick wall for wide receivers. Since Week 6, they have ranked 17th in fantasy points per game allowed to perimeter wide receivers. Pickens could still walk away with a big game this week.
