Parker Washington did not have a catch all season before today.
He has four (and his first career TD) today

Best part of Parker Washington's tape at Penn St. was his competitiveness.
Consistently physical to the football and able to sustain through traffic. Wasn't a high draft pick bc of his size and injuries, but he can play.
Always played hard at Penn State opposite Johan Dotsan. If Kirk is out for extended time, we'll see how he fills in. Not sure if it's good or bad for him though if Lawrence is out also.
I think Zay Jones is the better pickup. Washington wasn't that highly rated. Not very athletic, has short arms and below average speed and quickness if memory serves. Will play exclusively from the slot, not that that matters now days.Short term, who is the better pickup? Z. Jones or P. Washington?
Does this guy just pop right into Kirk's role while Zay stays where he is?
He got drafted, has stuck on a roster, and has a contract averaging $1m a year for 4 years at 21. Not sure I agree.He should’ve stayed another year at PSU. Got bad advice.

must add in deep dynasty?
I forget who pointed him out a couple weeks ago as a guy to add for deep dynasty but thanks man
Probably notIs he worth a START this week (16) as my Flex??
It's always relative to your options but I'd project him as getting 8+ targets and he's found the end zone in 2 of his 3 games. That seems at minimum worth flex consideration.Is he worth a START this week (16) as my Flex??
You could craft a narrative that Picken's spent the week getting roasted, both nationally and apparently in front of the rest of the team, and that he might come out with a different attitude or the team would try to "get him going". But I don't think his problem putting up stats is attitude related and I don't think the team is suddenly going to make a huge effort to get him going which would seem like rewarding him. So no, I'd go with Parker.Chase out. For me it's PW or Pickens. Anyone think Pickens is the better play?

Lol I'm screwedChase out. For me it's PW or Pickens. Anyone think Pickens is the better play?
I hope you went Pickens, for your own mental well-being
Going to be funny tomorrow when PW goes for 5/203/3Chase out. For me it's PW or Pickens. Anyone think Pickens is the better play?

Yeah, he's looking like a dynasty add you made midseason that has you squinting and seeing a potential future trade for value. That's about it. I mean he had 12 yards last week.I'm excited about this guy but I can't imagine starting him at this stage.
I want to like him.Decent player but probably needs something to happen to Kirk to be relevant.
Good way to put it. I want to like him, there is nice positive buzz from Jags coaches now but hard to see the targets happening anytime soon.I want to like him.Decent player but probably needs something to happen to Kirk to be relevant.
Nothing to back this up, but my guess is that a year after drafting a player fantasy owners have some kind of remorse on 70% of them. Keywords “some kind”. That percentage may even be low.I can tell myself a story where they just paid Lawrence and after this season it financially can make sense to move on from Kirk (who PW is a natural replacement for). Seems like that stuff usually doesn't play out how we expect though.
My thinking is along these lines. Kirk's cap number $24M in 2025(also this year) but Lawrences cap number will jump t$14M in 2025.I can tell myself a story where they just paid Lawrence and after this season it financially can make sense to move on from Kirk (who PW is a natural replacement for).

All of which makes Parker Washington someone to keep in mind as a last week or two waiver wire dynasty stash pickup in case they go that route.
Not my take on it his situation at all.My thinking is along these lines.

If he is available the last few weeks of the season that will mean he has done little this season (which is his second) and the Jags would probably be looking in another direction to find a replacement for Kirk if they decide to move on.
