From the episode
Chris Godwin this week...I think Godwin's going to eat in this matchup...You look at last year, weeks 13 through 18, he's back on the field. Chris Godwin was not washed dude...the Cincinnati defense that was horrible against defending the slot last year.
STACKED’s take
Godwin's slot role vs. Bengals' weak slot defense (5th most YDS/target) supports WR 2 upside despite WR 31 ranking.
The source believes Chris Godwin will produce well in week one against Cincinnati, projecting him as a potential WR 2 despite ECR ranking him WR 31. The source notes that DJ Turner will shadow Emeka Buka, pushing targets to other receivers including Godwin. In weeks 13-18 last year when Godwin returned, he played almost 60% of snaps from the slot with 1.88 yards per route run and 0.107 first downs per route run (elite). Cincinnati's defense was horrible against slot receivers last year: Jalen Davis (slot corner) gave up the fourth highest rate of step-back separation and was 15th in blanketed rate; the defense overall gave up the fifth most yards per target to slot receivers.
