FantasyPros Articles on George Pickens
From the article
Pickens finished with just 2 of 3 official targets (4 true) for 75 yards (a 6.7% official/8.3% adjusted target share)... Compared to Week 3 (11 official/12 true targets, 7 catches, 82 yards, 28.6% adjusted), his volume collapsed (-8 targets)... Pickens is too talented, and Dak Prescott is playing too well for him to stay this quiet for this long.
STACKED’s take
Pickens' targets collapsed to 3 from 11; source expects variance correction given talent.
Finished with 2 of 3 official targets (4 true) for 75 yards (6.7% official/8.3% adjusted target share), including a 53-yard deep-middle catch (Q3, 10:43) to the HST 11 and a 22-yard deep-left catch (Q4, 0:52) to the HST 12 that set up the winning score, plus a DPI-erased 3rd-and-7 target at the HST 8. Compared to Week 3 (11 official/12 true targets, 7 catches, 82 yards, 28.6% adjusted), his volume collapsed by 8 targets. The source notes that while fantasy managers will take 2 splash plays on three targets, Pickens has 75-plus yards in back-to-back games and is currently 5th in most yards by a WR without a TD yet this season. Given his TD monster status last season, the source believes this is just variance and expects him to return to his Week 3 target share (28.6%), as he is too talented and Dak Prescott is playing too well for him to stay this quiet.
