Few can match the size (6'4") speed (3.6 40-yard dash) combination of 2nd round rookie Christian Watson. Even if the production at North Dakota State doesn't pop, the measurables that Watson brings to the Packer offense do. Combine the physical traits with a strong work ethic, and serious opportunity, and you have a rookie receiver worth keeping an eye on. Can Green Bay rely on the vets to hold down the passing game, or will Watson be thrust into a prominent role early? Look for Watson to provide some early season sizzle as a deep threat. If he proves to be a quick learner as an NFL route runner, and become someone Rodgers can trust, he has the physical traits to dominate and become a fantasy asset down the stretch. With the most raw upside of any receiver on this offense, don't be afraid to reach for Watson in your drafts.

 Christian Watson a true gametime decision
Packers don't play until late afternoon
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Jan 1, 7:00 am
|  | Packers’ WR Christian Watson, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a hip injury, will test his injury pre-game to see if he can play vs. the Vikings, per source. Watson didn’t take any live repetitions last week during practice, but Green Bay still is hoping he can play. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Sounds like Watson is a true gametime decision after not practicing very much this week. If he sits, Allen Lazard would have some intrigue against the Vikings defense that's given up the most fantasy points to wide receivers.
| Christian Watson could be ready for Week 17
Left Christmas Day game early with hip injury

| | Packers coach Matt LaFleur said WR Christian Watson (hip) will be day-to-day. (Tom Silverstein on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Watson piled up six catches and eight targets on only 25 snaps before his day came to an end. The day-to-day designation suggests he will likely be listed as questionable for Week 17 versus the Vikings. If he can play through the injury, he gets the best matchup he can ask for against a Minnesota defense that has been clobbered by receivers all season long. Watson possesses overall WR1 upside this week and needs to be started in all leagues if he can play.
