Romeo Doubs is a 2023 fantasy football draft sleeper at wide receiver and an ADP draft value. Target Doubs as an undervalued WR in fantasy football drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~136 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~185
ANALYSIS: Last season, Green Bay wide receivers were targeted 296 times. Now 150 of those targets are up for grabs, with Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb both in New York with Aaron Rodgers. The Packers drafted wide receiver Jayden Reed in the second round of the NFL Draft this year, but there are still a lot of vacated targets to be gobbled up.
Many will say Christian Watson is the WR1 in Green Bay, which may very well be the case, but that doesn't mean Doubs isn't an undervalued PPR target. With his current WR60 ranking, he very much fits that mold.
The connection with Jordan Love was present last training camp and preseason, and the two seem to be picking up right where they left off.
There are multiple reasons why Doubs should be on your radar when drafting this season. For starters, he'll be on the field full-time and will be targeted. Last season, before he got hurt, Doubs was playing 90% of the snaps as a rookie. He saw eight or more targets in three of his first six games. That was all while playing with fellow rookie Watson. Additionally, his 23.8% target rate as a rookie was very promising. That's the same exact target rate Treylon Burks had last season.
Second, the Packers play in the NFC North. That means points will be scored. Last season, Chicago, Minnesota, and Detroit all ranked in the bottom five in points allowed. Defense is almost non-existent in this division, which will help Doubs in 35% of his games. Yes, it'll also help Watson, but with the Packers playing catch-up for most of these games, Doubs should see a lot of short and intermediate targets as the low average depth of target (aDOT) receiver (77th-ranked). Watson, on the other hand, ranked 12th amongst all wideouts in aDOT last season.
