Watson's volatile completion rates and EPA per play create weekly variance for his receivers.

Watson's inconsistent play undermines his receivers' fantasy value. His completion percentage and EPA per play (CPOE) have been volatile: Week 4 vs PIT (+6.4% PROE, +3.8% CPOE), Week 5 at NYJ (-0.8%, -15.6%), Week 6 vs BAL (-4.1%, -0.8%), Week 7 at TEN (-3.3%, +6.7%). After favoring the pass in the first month, the Browns have shifted to their rushing attack, creating weekly variance in passing quality and quantity. This inconsistency makes both Concepcion and Boston tough to trust despite their individual target metrics.
