Roman Wilson

WR, PIT

Wednesday, September 30

The Ringer's high on him as the breakout pick of the struggling-young-WR class thanks to playing time and QB quality, but Yahoo's hosts push back, chalking up his flashes to Cincinnati's leaky zone rather than real route-running growth. Buy the volume/opportunity, but don't assume the talent has clicked yet.

▲ The Ringer Fantasy Football Show: Picked as the best bet among a group of struggling young receivers (over Brian Thomas Jr., Marvin Harrison Jr., Calvin Ridley/Carnell Tate) to break out due to playing time and offensive/QB quality, despite a costly end-zone drop. listen ↗

▶ Yahoo Fantasy Football with Josh & Hayden: Flashed big plays vs. Cincinnati's leaky zone coverage but hosts view him as a sloppy route runner overall, benefiting from a favorable matchup more than skill growth. listen ↗

▲ Rotoworld Football Show – Fantasy Football: Was a positive regression candidate who broke out with 60 yards and a touchdown; hosts are increasingly interested given a 31% air-yard share and a favorable matchup versus Cleveland's slot defense. listen ↗

▼ Yahoo Fantasy Football with Josh & Hayden: Had 3-60-1 but played only 39% of snaps in first game back with Michael Pittman returning, and was benched late after a costly drop/interception; hosts are passing on him. listen ↗

▶ Fantasy Football Today: Some hope for him behind Xavier Hutchinson in this matchup. listen ↗
