From the video

Next up, Michael Wilson as your wide receiver seven. I mean, I like it. It's worth it based on what he's done this season... he's the wide receiver six in usage and expected points this season as well.

Elite usage and high-leverage role make Wilson a strong WR7

Michael Wilson is ranked as the WR7, supported by elite usage and expected points metrics; he currently ranks as the WR6 in usage and expected points this season. Since Week 11 of last year, he trails only Puka Nacua, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Chris Olave, and Amon-Ra St. Brown in fantasy points per game. The source notes he is frequently targeted in high-leverage situations like the red zone and has had games where every single catch came off pre-snap motion.
