All Flock Fantasy insights about Garrett Wilson
PositiveRoleOct 26, 2026
Garrett Wilson remains the Jets' WR1, but Flock Fantasy is concerned about his target volume given Omar Cooper's emergence. Wilson is averaging only 7.3 targets per game, with a dramatic drop since Cooper's breakout: 6 targets in week six, 3 targets in week seven. While Wilson is still the wide receiver one for the rest of the season, it's not a certainty given the target-share compression.PositiveUsageOct 23, 2026
Garrett Wilson is an absolute jam as a wide receiver with tremendous target volume. He has averaged eight targets per game this season, which he has done every single year of his NFL career. The source recommends continuing to start him.PositiveValueOct 22, 2026
Garrett Wilson is acquired in a trade where Aaron Jones and DeVonta Smith are sent away. This is considered a good long-term move despite Smith's favorable short-term matchup. Additionally, Wilson represents a down-tier in a three-for-three trade where he is exchanged for Jameson Williams, though Puka Nacua questions whether Jamo is even needed as a start.PositiveUsageOct 22, 2026
Target volume dipped significantly in Week 6, dropping to 20% of Jets target share compared to 38% the week prior. The uncertainty stems from whether Omar Cooper's arrival provides the offense with another weapon or if the dip was due to Christian Gonzalez's coverage. Lamar is concerned that Wilson will have targets stolen away from Omar Cooper, a round-one NFL draft pick who looked incredibly strong last week. However, Lamar still expects Garrett Wilson to dominate the target share in the Jets offense.PositiveValueOct 19, 2026
Flock Fantasy identifies Garrett Wilson as a top-tier WR in a dominant team context, ranking him among the elite WRs (Puka Nacua, Ja'Marr Chase, Garrett Wilson, A.J. Brown). Wilson is a trade target the source would pursue with 2027 picks in a contention strategy to compete in 2027 and 2028 alongside Terry McLaurin. He is also acquired in a trade where the team gives up Christian McCaffrey and Jaylen Waddle for Jeremiah Love, Garrett Wilson, and Parker Washington.PositiveRoleOct 19, 2026
Getting target competition added to his wide receiver room with Omar Cooper Jr., a round-one NFL draft pick by the Jets who looked great against New England in his first real game. While Christian Gonzalez's coverage may have influenced game script, the speaker warns that if Omar Cooper continues improving as a rookie, Wilson could face significant target competition in an already bad Jets offense.PositiveProjectionOct 19, 2026
Sliding down rest-of-season rankings due to target share dilution from Omar Cooper Jr. and Kinyon Seddiq emerging. Dameon Pierce expects Wilson's target share to decrease from 33% to closer to 25% as other round-one pass catchers get involved, reducing the value of his role if the Jets offense remains poor.PositiveProjectionOct 18, 2026
Cam Scataboo recommends Garrett Wilson over AJ Brown in the vast majority of spots, describing Wilson as a set-it-and-forget-it stud; Wilson is a reliable starter this week despite slightly lowered expectations for Brown.PositiveMatchupOct 16, 2026
Garrett Wilson faces a tough matchup against New England; the Jets offense projects to score fewer points than any other offense discussed in the video. With Kenyan Drake and Omar Cooper potentially returning, Wilson faces additional target competition, which may prevent him from being ranked as an elite WR1 despite being the clear alpha in his offense.PositiveRoleOct 16, 2026
In a 12-team start-eight format, Flock Fantasy advises holding Garrett Wilson due to wide receiver depth concerns. When evaluating a trade proposal that would send Wilson and Chase Brown for CD Lamb, the source recommends keeping the depth, stating the need to hold on to both players. Wilson is also grouped in the same tier as A.J. Brown, Malik Neighbors, Parker Washington, Terrace Marshall, Nico Collins, and Christian Watson as part of the source's updated rankings.PositiveUsageOct 15, 2026
With Adonai Mitchell sidelined week-to-week and Kenyan Sadiq banged up, Garrett Wilson continues to dominate target share for the New York Jets. Michael Penn emphasizes Wilson is getting every target available in the Jets offense.PositiveValueOct 14, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a recommended trade target for managers looking to move off Jaylen Warren. He can be acquired in a straight-up trade or by packaging assets like Jaylen Waddle and Ali Gordon.PositiveValueOct 14, 2026
Flock Fantasy recommends acquiring Garrett Wilson in a trade for Bejon in a 12-team start-eight format, indicating Wilson is more valuable than Bejon. Wilson is positioned as a key upgrade to address the team's need for an additional wide receiver starter alongside Marvin Harrison (WR3).PositiveUsageOct 12, 2026
Garrett Wilson is performing incredibly well, with Cd Lamb highlighting his insane target volume despite the Jets' offense not being elite.PositiveUsageOct 12, 2026

Garrett Wilson (or Emanuel Wilson) is preferred over Kamara in a PPR league decision; the source indicates the Wilson side is the preferred play in this matchup.NegativeValueOct 11, 2026
Garrett Wilson is part of a trade proposal involving Kenneth Walker; in shallow formats with depth, Walker is the superior asset.NegativeValueOct 10, 2026
Wilson is being traded away for Luther Burton in a multi-trade package, viewed as a downgrade. However, in a separate trade discussion, Wilson is the recommended side when acquiring him alongside Bucky Irving for two future first-round picks (mid-27 and late-27); the trade becomes unfavorable if either pick becomes an early first-rounder. Wilson is also recommended as a flex play in scenarios with multiple injuries to other receivers.PositiveValueOct 9, 2026
Kyle Manungai evaluates a trade where Garrett Wilson and Aaron Jones are sent away for Jalen Hurts and Hampton as an absolute smash for the receiving side, indicating Wilson is being undervalued in the deal.PositiveUsageOct 8, 2026
Wilson is averaging 28% target share for the Jets. Though the offense struggled last week, he will benefit from the absence of Adonai Mitchell and Breece Hall, meaning he should see heavy target volume. The Jets are favored over the Cleveland Browns.PositiveValueOct 8, 2026
Garrett Wilson is valued about the same as Chase Pickens in trade discussions. He's described as a solid wide receiver two in keeper league format and is the receiving end of a no-brainer trade where he and Trevion Henderson are acquired for Jaylen Warren and Denzel Boston. Wilson is a desirable asset and starting wide receiver in a 3-1 team's 10-team, two-receiver, one-flex league.PositiveUsageOct 5, 2026
Jsn. Now expresses frustration with Garrett Wilson's performance, noting he had only three targets against Tampa Bay Buccaneers; this shows what happens when the Jets can run the ball and don't throw it repeatedly. Wilson needs target volume because the Jets offense isn't super efficient, and he showed his floor this past week with the New York Jets offense.PositiveValueOct 4, 2026
Garrett Wilson is recommended as a starting wide receiver in weekly lineup decisions. However, in rebuild scenarios, the source suggests pivoting off Wilson as a veteran receiver to acquire additional long-term value and younger assets or draft picks.PositiveValueOct 3, 2026
Garrett Wilson is suggested as a potential upgrade target in a trade; the source proposes sending DeVonta Smith and Olly Gordon to a 3-0 team in exchange for Wilson to improve an 0-3 roster's short-term wide receiver production.NegativeRoleOct 2, 2026
In a 16-team tight end premium league (start six format), Garrett Wilson is acquired as part of a trade package to address wide receiver depth concerns; the receiving team has limited WR depth with only Wadd Godwin, Alec Pierce, and J Mo on the roster.PositiveProjectionOct 1, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a locked and loaded name to play easily at wide receiver with high conviction. The source identifies Wilson as the preferred straight-up trade target for DeVonta Adams, stating 'If you could flip Adams for Garrett Wilson straight up at this point, you do it,' indicating Wilson offers better value than Adams in the current market. Wilson is also identified as a desirable target acquisition for teams in need of wide receiver upgrades, worth trading long-term assets to obtain.NegativeValueSep 30, 2026
The source evaluates Garrett Wilson in multiple trade scenarios: as part of a deal for Saquon and Trey Tucker (advises against due to Tucker's poor value), and as part of a Hertz/Wilson/Watson for Brock Bowers/Bucky Irving deal (suggests only if thin at running back).PositiveValueSep 29, 2026
Bree Hall recommends acquiring Garrett Wilson in a trade for Ashen Genty and Javvante Williams; Hall views Wilson as having better fantasy value in this deal.PositiveUsageSep 28, 2026
Wilson is averaging nine targets per game and looks 'absolutely incredible.' He left last week for concussion evaluation but was cleared and is fine. The source notes the Jets offense looks much better than expected coming into the season.PositiveProjectionSep 28, 2026
Wilson is a set-it-and-forget-it locked-and-loaded wide receiver; Stafford was actively trying to trade for him before Week 4. He left the field briefly for concussion checks but appears fine.PositiveValueSep 27, 2026
In a trade scenario involving Kairen and Garrett Wilson for Amari, Hampton, Luther Burton, and a half PPR start seven, source prefers the Garrett Wilson side, indicating Wilson has more value than the package of players being offered for him.NegativeValueSep 26, 2026
Garrett Wilson was a target in a trade offer involving Justin Jefferson and Emeka Egbuka.NegativeRoleSep 26, 2026
Garrett Wilson is stuck in a bad offense, which limits his fantasy upside relative to his talent level. The source views him as probably the more talented wide receiver compared to A.J. Brown, but the offensive situation constrains his production. In one trade, Garrett Wilson was traded away along with Bucky Irving for Justin Jefferson and ETN, creating a massive downgrade at running back despite the receiver upgrade.PositiveMatchupSep 25, 2026
Wilson has safe target volume with Omar Cooper on IR and rookie tight end Kenyan Sadique doing nothing. He faces the Detroit Lions defense, which ranks 31st in opposing wide receiver points, creating an excellent matchup for volume-based production.NegativeValueSep 25, 2026
Trading Garrett Wilson for Drake London is characterized as not a bad trade, though the outcome depends on whether Michael Pennock saves Drake London's offense. Wilson becomes more attractive relative to Devonte Adams if Puka Nakua returns quickly.NegativeValueSep 23, 2026
The source suggests that Garrett Wilson could be used as a trade piece in a near one-for-one swap to acquire George Pickens, indicating a willingness to move on from Wilson to secure Pickens.NegativeValueSep 23, 2026
Flock Fantasy views Wilson as a complementary piece in upside-swing trades. In one scenario, Wilson was acquired alongside Puka Nakua in exchange for Justin Jefferson and Nico Collins, with the source supporting the deal despite Puka injury risk. In another trade evaluation, Wilson is valued equivalently to Malik Neighbors and Rashid Rice—not a tier below them. The source also proposed Wilson as the additional upgrade needed to justify trading Justin Jefferson for Puka Nakua, positioning him as the sweetener that would make the Nakua acquisition acceptable from a risk-management standpoint.PositiveUsageSep 22, 2026
Garrett Wilson is expected to crush in a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions. He is operating in a competent offense with decent quarterback play and is projected to see high volume in a game where the Jets will throw the ball a ton.NegativeValueSep 22, 2026
Eli Sters prefers Christian Watson over Garrett Wilson in a trade scenario, citing more upside with the Packers offense compared to the Jets offense; he owns Watson in his own league and would not sell him for Wilson. Wilson is also characterized as a downgrade when traded for Saquon Barkley in a multi-player deal (Barkley to Wilson and DeVonta Adams). However, Sters views Wilson as a fair acquisition target in a 14-team league trade for Jaylen Ward and Matthew Golden, and as a clear upgrade over ETN when acquired alongside Asher Genty for Puka Nacua and Travis ETN.NegativeProjectionSep 21, 2026
Garrett Wilson looks incredible and benefits from the absence of Odell Beckham Jr. However, Drew Lock is applying a slight discount due to uncertainty about the ceiling of the Jets offense despite Geno Smith looking good and the team sitting at 2-0.PositiveValueSep 20, 2026
Puka recommends acquiring Garrett Wilson as part of a favorable trade package, endorsing the trade of McGomery and Lad for Loveland, Jeremiah Love, and Garrett Wilson. Puka also notes that in dynasty leagues, Wilson is too valuable to trade away for Lavonte and Javante, stating 'Dynasty League, hell to the no,' indicating Wilson's premium dynasty value.PositiveRoleSep 17, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a potential riser in rankings as he commands the lion's share of targets for the Jets; Joe Burrow notes he could potentially flip DeVonta Smith in rankings.PositiveValueSep 16, 2026

The source considers Garrett Wilson a preferred start over Malik Nabers given the injury concerns surrounding Nabers.PositiveRoleSep 10, 2026
Garrett Wilson is a must-start player in the D tier and above, regardless of league settings, despite the game being projected as horribly low-scoring; the reason is that new additions Kenyan Drake and Omar Cooper Jr. (round one pick) will have no role whatsoever at the start of the year, concentrating targets on Wilson.NegativeValueSep 8, 2026
Garrett Wilson is mentioned as a potential trade piece to sell in combination with Dalton Concaid to target a TE upgrade like Colston Loveland.NegativeProjectionSep 7, 2026
Garrett Wilson is ranked low (22nd) for Week 1 because he plays in a game against the Tennessee Titans that is projected to be the lowest-scoring of the week.PositiveProjectionSep 5, 2026

Drafted at pick 406. The speaker has Garrett Wilson a tier ahead of DJ Moore, viewing Wilson as a significantly better wide receiver than Moore at this point in their respective careers. The speaker prefers Wilson's talent and situation over Moore's despite Moore's team (Buffalo Bills) being considered phenomenal compared to the Jets.PositiveValueSep 3, 2026
Garrett Wilson can be justified as a trade sale given strong receiving depth (Diggs as WR5, Lamb as WR2); however, Wilson-for-Watson trades represent a down-tier move. The source's overall preference leans toward the Kenneth Walker and Bucky Irving side in multi-asset scenarios, suggesting Wilson retains solid value but is not a cornerstone hold.PositiveValueAug 30, 2026
In a two-wide receiver, single-flex league trade (Josh Allen and Quinton Johnson for Jaden Daniels and Garrett Wilson), Flock Fantasy frames Wilson as a two-tier upgrade from Quinton Johnson and notes that Wilson would be a weekly starter given the weak wide receiver room. Additionally, Jordan Addison is viewed as closer in value to Garrett Wilson than Bucky is to Derrick Henry in a separate trade scenario, suggesting Wilson maintains stronger value relative to Addison.PositiveRoleAug 29, 2026
Christian McCaffrey acknowledges Garrett Wilson is super talented from a talent perspective but notes he plays for the New York Jets and has never shown a top-end ceiling in fantasy. Additional target competition from Omar Cooper and Kenyan Drake further limits his upside.PositiveValueAug 28, 2026

The source identifies Garrett Wilson as a priority target in the fourth round, noting that in a full PPR format with two flex spots and a four-wide-receiver starting requirement, drafting him is a "no-brainer."PositiveBustAug 11, 2026
The source advises against drafting Garrett Wilson, arguing that despite his talent, he is hindered by playing for the New York Jets and the poor quarterback situation involving Geno Smith, as well as increased target competition from the team's recent draft picks. The source explicitly rejects the narrative that he is set up for a breakout season.PositiveProjectionAug 11, 2026

Offered at 4.09 in the draft, indicating late fourth-round receiver availability. Garrett Wilson offered at 4.09 in the mock draft; source is evaluating him as part of the wide receiver tier after securing running backs Gibbs and Jeremiah Love.PositiveProjectionJun 28, 2026
Had a 34% team target share in 2025 before going down (one out of every three pass attempts going to him, primarily with Justin Fields); historically strong volume. However, has never demonstrated an elite ceiling in fantasy because he plays for the New York Jets offense, which is garbage and projected to be one of the worst in the league—only better than the Cardinals and Browns according to sportsbooks. The addition of two round-one NFL picks to the Jets will finally give Wilson target competition, capping his upside despite elite target volume. Jets projected to improve with Gino Smith, but the offense remains a limiting factor on Wilson's upside.PositiveRoleJun 16, 2026

Garrett Wilson dealt with one of the worst organizations and quarterbacks in the NFL in 2024. Despite back-to-back seasons as a top-24 wide receiver and a 34% team target share, Puka One is concerned the Jets situation won't improve meaningfully, questioning whether moves like acquiring Kyler Murray would actually help. He ranks Wilson at 15 but acknowledges the team's quarterback situation must be monitored closely.NegativeRoleDec 19, 2025

Garrett Wilson is a lot more talented than many wide receivers in his tier, but his ceiling is constrained by playing for the Jets with additional offensive options.
