If you're in a fantasy football league, you are in the right place because today we are breaking down the seven wide receivers who could actually break fantasy football this year.

0:07.3

Now, if you're not familiar, I'm Salvatry. I've helped over 10,000 people win their fantasy lead the last few seasons alone, and I plan to do the same for you with this video. Let's start with Christian Watson.

0:15.7

Christian Watson, who is in a Packers' wide receiver room

0:18.0

that for like the first time since he's been in the NFL,

0:20.9

so we're talking four plus years now, is basically thinned out.

0:24.5

Let's show it right here. On the team changes tracker, you could see what happened this offseason in Green Bay. They're going to say in real life that they got better addition by subtraction. I'm not too sure I agree with that overall, but look at all these subtractions. This is just on the offensive side of the ball. The team changes tracker. They lose backup quarterback Malik Willis.

0:41.8

Okay, that was expected. They lose some offensive linemen and Rashid Walker and Elkin Jenkins,

0:45.8

both starters for them last year. But in terms of Christian Watson, they lose Romeo Dobbs

0:51.0

and Don Tavian Wicks. Those are two massive pieces of the offense, and they only replace those guys with

0:56.7

Sky Moore, who's mostly like a special team's gadget guy at best during his NFL career.

1:01.1

So what does this lead to?

1:02.0

Well, according to 4-4-4, as you can see right here, vacated targets, the Packers

1:05.8

rank fourth as of right now this off-season, fourth in available target share, meaning 37% of their targets

1:12.2

last year, mostly from Wix, mostly from Romeo Dobbs, a little bit the running back of

1:17.3

Manuel Wilson, but those wide receivers, 37% of the targets are now available. And that also includes

1:23.7

50% of this team's targets inside the 10-yard line, where Romeo Zobbs was always pretty money and one of the most, if not most trusted option for Jordan Love in the big moments, which is in the red zone, in the 10-yard line zone, right, that green zone, the money zone, if you will, the end zone, third downs, fourth downs in the playoffs. He was always going Romeo Dobbs way. So the Packers didn't really replace those guys with anybody. Like, sure, Tucker Kraft is going to come back. He was arguably the best tight end in football when he was healthy last year. He was the best pass catcher on the Packers when he was healthy last year before suffering a torn ACL dealing with another knee injury earlier on in this season. And his eight games played where some of these he was limited or left early. He earned a nice 44 targets. He had massive games as early as like the second game of the season. If you pull it up here on Thursday night against the commanders, first game of the year scores a touchdown. But then he really starts to break out that massive game of 24 points. Continues to have some nice performances. 143 yard game with multiple touchdowns, 33 fantasy points.

2:20.4

Unfortunately, the next week is when he ends up tearing the ACL and just goes down for the

2:24.9

year.

2:25.1

I think that might have been the exact same game where they lost Micah Parsons.

2:29.0

Might have been a week later in the Denver game for Michael Parsons.

2:32.2

Regardless, you now have Christian Watson as the de facto on paper number one receiver

2:36.5

for Jordan Love, who just continues to get better.
