George Pickens Week 11 Outlook - Ravens at Steelers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 14th 2024, 1:05pm EST

With Russell Wilson starting, Pickens has been the WR9 in fantasy points per game and is tied for the lead in end zone targets with Justin Jefferson. Overall, Pickens has a 25.9% target share, a 44.6% air-yard share, 2.74 YPRR, and a 34.4% first-read share. Over the last two weeks, Baltimore has moved back towards heavy two-high usage with the sixth-highest rate in the NFL (61.8%). Against two high, Pickens has seen his target share drop to 18.6%, his YPRR decrease to 2.08, and his first-read share sit at 24.6%. These are still solid numbers, but Pickens' bread and butter has been destroying single high this season. Pickens will still be leading the way for the Steelers' passing attack and the main weapon Wilson will look for when going deep (he leads the team in deep targets). Baltimore has allowed the most fantasy points per game and the most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
