Matthew Golden is not a bust. He's a rookie. Right now he's one of the very best WR values at his #132 ADP 📈 Here's why: ✅ Last year Golden was banged up for several games due to injury. ✅ The Packers tried to get him involved early on last year, but he wasn't on the same page with Jordan Love. He'd be wide open, but Love would miss him. And he'd run the wrong routes. Love said this began to change late in the year. This is normal & should continue to improve. ✅ Due to these common rookie impediments above, he was effectively the #4/5 WR on the Packers due to their extreme WR depth. And even then, they still tried to get him the ball on shorter routes/runs. The Packers WANTED to feed him. And now they get even more opportunity to do so because: ✅ Jordan Love's favorite safety net at WR in Romeo Doubs is gone ✅ Dontayvion Wicks, who was usually ahead of Golden due to his experience in the system, is gone ✅ Christian Watson has a very shaky injury history. Even 4 years in, he still hasn't played a full season due to his continual injury problems. If this continues, it would guarantee Golden is a top 2 option at WR, absent some sudden breakout from Savion Williams or Skyy Moore (unlikely). ✅ Despite Tucker Kraft's optimism, he may end up being on a snap count early returning from the ACL he suffered in November. ✅ Golden already showed he has what it takes in his rookie season. All he needs to do is stay healthy while continuing to gain more chemistry with Love. When he does, people will know why he's such a great value at his current PPR ADP.

This nationwide FAA emergency easily could affect NFL games. NFL teams sometimes fly on Fridays. And who knows if everything will be fixed & back on track by tomorrow. I'm paying attention to the possibility that some NFL games may be delayed. And will provide weather updates as soon as I find out if games are delayed. If they're not delayed, I'll still be providing the normal updates before the games. 👍
