PodcastThe Extra Point: Fantasy Football Trade Targets & Start/Sit Dilemmas (Ep. 2289)October 24, 2026

From the episode

I wasn't like over the moon about getting Garrett Wilson and like George Pickens and then trading away Antonio Williams or excuse me, Jameson Williams, Stevens and Jacobs. Because like Jacobs can be like literally an RB1 rest of the way.

STACKED’s take

NeutralValue

Pickens trade package requires giving up RB1 upside.

George Pickens is part of a three-for-two trade package (Jacobs, Ramondre Stevenson, and Jameson Williams for Garrett Wilson and Pickens) that Matt Peralt does not strongly endorse; acquiring Pickens requires giving up a potential RB1 in Jacobs, making the trade less attractive than the simpler Jacobs-Stevenson-for-Watson deal.
