Week 10 outlook
vs SF ·No injury report yet
George Pickens is a high-end WR2 this week. The projection is 6 targets, 4 receptions and 65 receiving yards. The floor is low and the ceiling is high: 13, 16 and 7 points. Pickens saw about the same work, 4 touches in Week 8 after 6. The San Francisco defense has been stingy with receivers, with the 5th-fewest points allowed. His usage is down, about 5 targets a game over the last two after 9, but that is still a starter's share, so the call holds. Start him this week, but check the injury report before kickoff.
