2023 Fantasy Outlook
After a 2021 season with Virginia in which he averaged 21.1 yards per catch and scored nine touchdowns, Wicks fell off last year (14.3 YPC, two TDs) and subsequently fell down draft boards. Even so, the Packers liked him enough to snap him up in the fifth round of this year's draft. Drops were an issue for Wicks, as were his 40-yard dash times (4.62 at the combine, 4.57 at his pro day). He otherwise rates well athletically and can be a big-play threat. Green Bay's receiving room is as green as any in the NFL, so if Wicks shows he's more like the receiver from 2021 than a year ago, he could snag the fourth spot on the depth chart and push for snaps as a rookie.

Ends with goose egg
WRGreen Bay Packers
January 22, 2024
Wicks was targeted twice but did not catch a pass in Saturday's 24-21 loss to the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Wicks entered Saturday's contest on a bit of a hot streak, but he did not make a mark outside of the targets in Green Bay's final game of the season. He did reach the end zone in his team's playoff opener, and over the final six games of the regular season, he averaged 3.7 receptions and 56.8 receiving yards while scoring three times. Every Packers wideout that finished the year on the roster is under contract for 2024, so it's tough to predict what role Wicks will open next season in. However, he made a major mark during his rookie campaign, and he figures to make a push for a starting spot in Year 2.
