Overpriced second-rounder with contract risk and declining target share.
Matt Harmon views George Pickens as overpriced in the second round (ADP 23-24 on DraftKings) and a bust risk. His WR5 finish last year was inflated by games when CeeDee Lamb was unavailable; with Lamb healthy, Pickens' target share will decline. Additionally, there is meaningful roster uncertainty with Dallas—better than 50% but maybe 60% chance nothing happens and he stays—but the Cowboys have a history of contract drama and Pickens likely wants to be paid now, creating risk of trade or holdout. Harmon would be interested in Pickens at the end of the third round but not at current second-round prices, where Nico Collins, Chris Olave, and DeVonta Smith offer better upside. If everything aligns, Pickens has top-12 upside but is probably one of the safer picks as a 17-game WR2, with a lower ceiling than Collins' top-five projection.
