Matthew Berry likes George Pickens in the Eagles-Cowboys matchup; the Cowboys allow the fourth most yards to the slot and the highest completion percentage to slot receivers, and Pickens should benefit from the Eagles being forced to throw due to their struggling defense and the Cowboys' strong offensive performance.PositiveMatchupOct 26, 2026
George Pickens is a play for over 63.5 receiving yards against the Eagles' depleted secondary, which is giving up the fourth-most passing yards to wide receivers; he wasn't as involved last week in a loss, but the Steelers should regroup and get their playmakers the ball early, especially against a secondary that's banged up.PositiveProjectionOct 9, 2026
Matthew Berry notes that George Pickens had a breakout Week 4 game (28 points) and identifies him as a buy-low opportunity based on route percentage and target data from his 10 Facts column on FantasyLife.com. Berry emphasizes that while Pickens won't score 28 points every week, the underlying metrics support his upside. Upcoming schedule (Steelers, Panthers, Falcons, Bears) features teams that can move the ball offensively, meaning Cowboys will continue to throw and Pickens will remain a focal point.PositiveMatchupSep 10, 2026
