Pick #1: Garrett Wilson – New York Jets – Over 6 Receptions
Early in Monday Night’s game, the Aaron Rodgers to Garrett Wilson combo was clicking. They connected four times on New York’s first quarter touchdown drive. However, as San Francisco pulled away, the Jets offense was routinely stalling. When all was said and done, Wilson still managed to haul in six receptions on 11 targets.
Meanwhile, the Tennessee defense looked solid in the opener, but they weren’t really tested through the air in any capacity by Caleb Williams through the air. After facing a rookie in his first career NFL game, they will now square off against the most experienced QB in the NFL today. Wilson hauled in 95 balls last season without Rodgers and I expect him to be a major part of their game plan as we advance. I’ll start this slip off with Wilson grabbing at least six receptions, and our UnderDog projEV tool agrees.
Pick #2: Kyren Williams – Los Angeles Rams – More than 93.5 Rush + Rec. Yards
Any fear that Kyren Williams would lose some carries in this Los Angeles backfield should be put to rest after Week 1. While not overly effective on the ground, Kyren carried the ball 18 times and also had three receptions out of the backfield. With Puka Nakua now sidelined, this offense will be even more focused on Williams (when it’s not focused on Cooper Kupp), and this looks like a nice matchup for the Rams against the Arizona Cardinals.
In two meetings against the Cardinals last season, Kyren put on a show, racking up 158 yards rushing in the first contest and following it up with 143 (while also adding 61 receiving yards) in the encore performance. Sean McVay will need his ground game to get to work to keep this Arizona defense from keying in on the Stafford to Kupp combo, and I expect another solid outing from Williams here.
