From the video
Wilson going in the seventh, maybe early eighth round in most formats... the news buzzworthy line from Laflur calling Michael Wilson the new Puka Nakua in his offense... he's tough as nails. He's super competitive. He happens to be a really good receiver... he has mentioned that we don't want to put Marvin Harrison Jr. kind of close to the core. We don't want him inserting on safeties. That that is a role for for Michael Wilson... when Michael Wilson had Marvin Harrison on the field last year, he averaged just a 12% target share. When he was off the field, it was up to 25%.
STACKED’s take
Puka Nakua-type role; 12% target share with Harrison on field vs. 25% off.
Wilson is going in the seventh to early eighth round in most formats. Coach Mike Lafleur has positioned Wilson as a Puka Nakua-type receiver in the offense—a strong, sturdy player who can play between the tackles, insert on safeties, and 'muck it up' in contested situations. Lafleur praised Wilson as 'tough as nails,' 'super competitive,' and 'a really good receiver,' noting similarities to Puka Nakua and Robert Woods in playing style. Wilson will handle the role of inserting on safeties and playing between the tackles in contested situations—a distinct role from Marvin Harrison Jr., who will be moved around the formation. However, Wilson's target share drops dramatically when Harrison is on the field; last season he averaged just 12% target share with Harrison active versus 25% when Harrison was off the field—a huge split that constrains Wilson's fantasy ceiling in the Cardinals offense and makes him a secondary option despite potential value.
