Christian Watson

Watson has three top-36 weekly finishes this season and has been relegated to mostly downfield work. Since Week 7, 37.8% of his target volume has come via deep targets. Fortunately for Watson, the Saints have been struggling against deep passing, which could lead to a big day for the talented Packer. Since Week 10, the Saints have allowed the seventh-most deep passing yards per game and the 12th-highest passer rating to deep passing. During the same timeframe, New Orleans has allowed the third-most fantasy points per game and PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Watson's range of outcomes is wide, but he could be a home run swing from the flex this week.

Christian Watson was the top target, with 6 receptions on 3 targets for 56 yards. Watson led the team with 53% air yards (94 yards) and a target share of 23%. He also picked up another DPI call.
In the last seven games, Watson leads the Packers in targets (37), air yards (687), and receiving yards (463) - even after a doughnut in Week 12. What's curious is he has zero TDs over this span. That won't last.
