With Pickett under center, Pickens has thrived. In Weeks 5-7 before getting shut down by the Eagles, Pickens had a 13.9% target share and 18.6% air yard share with 1.44 yards per route run. In two of those three games, Pickens finished as a top-24 wide receiver (WR12, WR21). Pickens is eighth among wide receivers in deep targets. New Orleans is second in deep passing touchdowns allowed this season. Pickens will run about 52% of his routes against Paulson Adebo (76.9% catch rate, 143.2 passer rating). Pickens is headed for a big day as a WR3 with top-20 upside this week.
