Quez Watkins Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Quez Watkins ended up second on the team in receiving yards in a Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Watkins was targeted three times, catching two of them for a total of 57 yards. The rookie has shown good chemistry with fellow rookie Jalen Hurts. While Watkins certainly had a forgettable rookie season, his arrow is pointing slightly up in keeper and dynasty formats.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Quez Watkins scored his first NFL touchdown in Week 15, but it wasn't enough to get past the Arizona Cardinals. Watkins ended up with three catches for 40 yards and the score. He was targeted four times, as rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts threw the ball to pretty much every eligible Eagles receiver. Watkins scored on a 32-yard pass at the end of the first quarter. He's shown some pretty good chemistry with his fellow rookie Hurts, but Watkins remains too far down the depth chart to be anything more than a last ditch dart-throw option in most fantasy formats.

The Philadelphia Eagles needed wide receiver help coming into the 2020 NFL Draft, and they certainly addressed that need with Quez Watkins joining Jalen Reagor and John Hightower as Eagles draftees. Watkins is a pure burner with sub-4.4 second 40-yard dash speed, which is something the Eagles lacked last season amid their myriad of receiver injuries. Watkins will not start immediately but is a home run threat every time he steps on the field. He'll need to expand his route tree to become a more dependable receiver to trust for fantasy purposes.
