Sammy Watkins has been an affordable, high-volatility play since joining the Kansas City Chiefs. He's commanding just 16-percent of the Chiefs targets but on a passing attack that ranks first in numberFire's Power Rankings, that is enough to have boom weeks. This week the Chiefs are favored by ten points. When favored by a field goal or more, Watkins has been at his best:
Favorited By | Catches/G | Yards/G | Touchdowns/G |
---|---|---|---|
3 or more | 4.1 | 71.0 | 0.7 |
2 or fewer | 3.5 | 50.7 | 0.3 |
Being picked to win is typically advantageous, and Watkins is no exception. The Chiefs also have a 31.75 implied score, the second highest of the slate. At just $6,400, Watkins is a worthwhile risk in tournaments.
