Positive signalValue

Less severe injury, elite QB upgrade, and consistent target volume support Wilson's value.

Wilson is coming off a much less severe season-ending injury than Malik Nabers and is positioned to play with Geno Smith, described as the best QB of his career. Over the first five games of 2025 (before a brutal Denver matchup and his too-quick return from injury), Wilson was the WR6 in PPG (15.7 half-PPR/game) while averaging a career-high yards per route run. Entering last season, Wilson had finished no worse than 6th in total targets in his three healthy NFL seasons (156 targets per season). Even in his truncated 2025 season, Wilson averaged 8.4 targets per game (11th overall, good for a 143-target pace), demonstrating consistent elite target volume and efficiency that positions him favorably relative to injury-return comps like Nabers.
