Depth/upside bet — WR role isn't locked starter volume yet.
DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.
Durability ×0.98
One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.
Org environment ×0.99
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Watkins caught 15 passes for 142 yards in 2023, finishing WR131. Production trend is soft: WR87 → WR131 over the last two seasons. Only 5 games in 2023 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
