NegativeValueOct 27, 2026
Sell-high candidate whose efficiency has deteriorated significantly with Omar Cooper Jr. on the field. When both are on field, Wilson averages just 1.40 yards per route run compared to Cooper's 4.96 yards per route run. Despite maintaining 67% route share and alpha status, the source suggests better days may lie ahead but emphasizes the current production decline and the lack of true upside in the Gino Smith Jets offense.NegativeRoleOct 26, 2026
Only 3 targets, 2 catches, 26 yards in Week 7; significant production decline amid Omar Cooper Jr.'s emergence as primary receiver. Sideline behavior shows concerning signs including pouting, towel over head, and arguing with QB Gino Smith in multiple moments throughout the game. Source questions whether the relationship with Gino Smith is fragile, especially with Omar Cooper Jr. balling out and AD Mitchell having had the superior role early in the season. Gino Smith's tendency to spread the ball around and avoid locking onto a number one receiver (pattern from Seattle with JSN, Lockett, and DK Metcalf) may further limit Wilson's target share.PositiveMatchupOct 23, 2026
Called a high-end mid-range wide receiver and a start for Week 7 vs. Miami. The source highlights that the Dolphins are horrendous against play-action, allowing 12.09 yards per target and an 88% catch rate. Frank Reich runs play-action at league average, so while it won't be a huge focal point, the offense should hit big shots off play-action, especially if they establish the run game. This play-action weakness specifically benefits Garrett Wilson.PositiveUsageOct 21, 2026
The source recommends selling Garrett Wilson, citing a diminishing target share due to competition from Elijah Moore and Amari Cooper. Wilson has been outscored by another pass catcher on his team in five of the first six weeks, and the source questions if Geno Smith can sustain production for all of the team's receiving options.NegativeBustOct 13, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a potential sell-high candidate. Despite leading all wide receivers in target share (35%) over the three games without Adonai Mitchell, he faces a difficult upcoming schedule including matchups against Christian Gonzalez, the Dolphins, Raiders, and Chiefs.PositiveMatchupOct 8, 2026
The source is excited about Wilson this week due to a strong matchup against Cleveland's man-to-man defense. Cleveland plays man coverage over 50% of the time and zone coverage exactly 50%; no other defense exceeds 37% man coverage. Wilson scores approximately three times as many points per route against man coverage versus zone coverage. Wilson is now primarily a wide receiver (not slot), and Cleveland allows eight yards per pass to outside receivers—a significant vulnerability.PositiveValueOct 7, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a buy-low candidate after an outlier low-volume game (17 routes vs. 53 for Dante Meyers due to Jets game script). He ranks top 12 in yards per route run vs. man coverage and top 12 in separation and contested catch metrics. Ideal matchup vs. Browns who play man 52% of the time (no other team over 38%). Even if Adonai Mitchell returns, he may be limited, making this an excellent spot to acquire Wilson.PositiveProjectionSep 28, 2026
Scott Barrett confirms Garrett Wilson is fine after a concussion check. Barrett views Wilson as a top-10 receiver finally positioned for a career season, noting he consistently ranks in the top three for first-read target share and excels in efficiency metrics sensitive to quarterback play.PositiveProjectionSep 24, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a recommended start for Week 3. The source advises smashing the start button due to the Lions' defensive struggles and susceptibility to big plays downfield, though notes that Adonai Mitchell currently holds a better role in terms of expected fantasy points per game.PositiveValueSep 23, 2026
Source would trade Garrett Wilson straight up for Lad McConkey, indicating strong conviction in McConkey's buy-low value relative to Wilson's current market price.PositiveUsageSep 22, 2026
Garrett Wilson is noted for his involvement in the offense, specifically receiving seven targets in the most recent game.PositiveUsageSep 18, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a recommended start (WR22 projection) against Green Bay. He posted a 38% first-read target share in week one and is a top-three wide receiver in targets per route run against cover four defenses since 2024, a scheme the Packers' defensive coordinator favors.NegativeValueSep 16, 2026
The source suggests Garrett Wilson as a primary asset in a two-for-one or three-for-one trade package to acquire a high-value player like Ja'Marr Chase.PositiveRoleJul 14, 2026
Garrett Wilson is going to be the top target on the Jets team.PositiveProjectionJul 7, 2026
The source notes that Scott has been 'talking him up' with the premise 'what if he's had atrocious quarterback play just his entire career?' suggesting Wilson's upside is being reassessed positively given improved quarterback play (Geno Smith), implying undervaluation relative to potential.PositiveRoleApr 28, 2026
Garrett Wilson has huge contract insulation and is positioned to get a ton of targets on the Jets, making him the primary beneficiary of the improved offensive talent.PositiveMatchupNo date
Garrett Wilson is ranked as the WR13 with an elite matchup against the Bears, who play man coverage at a top-three rate. Wilson is a strong play given his top-five status in targets per route run against man coverage since the start of last year.NegativeUsageNo date
Garrett Wilson is used as a statistical benchmark for Adonai Mitchell, who outperformed him in both total targets and air yards (by 87 yards) through the first three weeks of the season.PositiveValueNo date
Garrett Wilson is explicitly loved by the source this year and is part of a strong draft pocket at 1.04 alongside Mike Evans. Wilson is going at 5.08 in this draft but should be going in the third round according to the source, representing phenomenal value and a significant ADP discount.
