Week 2 outlook

Start in 10- and 12-team leagues

Projected 12.5 PPR points (10.5 half-PPR, 8.5 standard) at NYJ, WR17 this week. 2026: 8 targets in Week 1 (20% target share), 147 yards, 2 TD. That is up from 2025, when he averaged 5.5 targets per game (13.2 PPR per game over 10 games, finished WR46); one game is a small sample.

Ray Dumont ▲5 — Christian Watson went off for 147 yards and 2 TDs on just 8 targets. That's a gift from the model sitting him at WR22, I'm taking the points and running.

Sit Christian Watson before the bill arrives

32.7 points on 8 targets and a 20% share. That is a highlight reel, not a role. I will believe the role when the targets show up to meet the yards.

Start Christian Watson. The big plays are the job.

147 yards and 2 scores on 6 catches. Some receivers need volume; some need one bad safety. Start him at NYJ and enjoy it.
