Arizona Cardinals DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has decided to skip the NFL scouting combine altogether this week. Harrison is the consensus top receiver prospect for the upcoming NFL draft. The 21-year-old is also without an agent, and he's not expected to do any testing at Ohio State's pro day in March, either. Barring something drastic happening in the next month, it would be a surprise if Harrison falls outside of the first five picks in this year's NFL draft. His final landing spot in the draft will play a big factor in Harrison's fantasy value in his rookie season, but even if he ends up in a less-than-ideal situation, he should have significant upside and a starting role right away in 2024.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins caught three of four targets for 12 yards during the team's 9-32 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 25-year-old was not able to do much, even with the absence of A.J. Brown (knee) and the early exit of Julio Jones (concussion). DeVonta Smith accounted for 148 of the 250 receiving yards Monday night and remained the only competent fantasy wide receiver for the Eagles not named Brown. After an underwhelming 2022, Watkins ended 2023 with just 15 receptions and could be looking for a new home this offseason. He is no longer a hold in Dynasty fantasy formats.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins will go on the road to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first round of the NFL playoffs. The 25-year-old saw heavy usage against the New York Giants last week, with DeVonta Smith missing the game due to an ankle injury and A.J. Brown (knee) exiting early. Watkins now has the chance to suit up as the No. 2 option behind Smith in the Eagles most important game of the season if Brown is ruled out for Monday night. Tampa Bay is a great matchup, as the Buccaneers allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2023. Watkins will be a great value pick in DFS if Brown is inactive, but he has been incredibly boom or bust in the past, so tread carefully.

In the final chapter of Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride's breakout season, the second-year tight end showcased his prowess with three receptions on six targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-20 loss to the Seahawks. McBride's elevated usage, especially after Zach Ertz's injury in Week 7, turned him into quarterback Kyler Murray's go-to target, culminating in 69 receptions, 655 yards, and three touchdowns over the last 10 games. His performance against Seattle was no exception, as he secured the lone touchdown pass from Murray in the game. As fantasy managers look ahead to 2024, McBride's consistent production and chemistry with Murray make him a promising option in the often scarce tight-end landscape.

In the Cardinals' narrow 21-20 loss to the Seahawks, Arizona rookie wide receiver Michael Wilson delivered a career-best performance, securing all six targets for an impressive 95 yards. The 2023 third-round pick showcased his potential, establishing a promising connection with quarterback Kyler Murray. Unlike their previous struggles, where they connected on just seven of 19 passes for 69 yards and one touchdown in four appearances together, Wilson and Murray seemed to find their rhythm in the season finale. As the 2023 season concludes, Wilson heads into the offseason with momentum, looking forward to a potential breakout in the 2024 campaign. His cumulative season stats of 38 receptions, 565 yards, and three touchdowns on 58 targets reflect a healthy 14.9 yards per catch and 9.7 yards per target.
