# Nathan Jahnke: A PFF fantasy piece names five wide receivers going in the first 10 rounds whom the site ranks above their consensus ADP, arguing each is a value at their current price: A.J. Brown, Garrett Wilson, Christian Watson, Brian Thomas Jr. and Quentin Johnston. It also asserts Watson is now the clear top receiver in Green Bay and that Adonai Mitchell will play the X for the Jets. **Claimed:** Aug 19, 2026 **Pundit:** Nathan Jahnke — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/nathan-jahnke **Outlet:** Pro Football Focus — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/pro-football-focus **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.pff.com/news/fantasy-football-undervalued-wide-receivers-2026/ 7 checkable claims — 5 sleeper calls and 2 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 11 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > If you can land any of them near their current ADP, you’re getting one of the best wide receiver values on the board. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Brian Thomas Jr. to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 7.10)** - Kind: Sleeper Calls · About: Brian Thomas Jr., Jacksonville Jaguars - Verdict: not settled yet - **Quentin Johnston to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 10.12)** - Kind: Sleeper Calls · About: Quentin Johnston, Los Angeles Chargers - Verdict: not settled yet - **Garrett Wilson to outplay his draft cost (ADP: 4.04)** - Kind: Sleeper Calls · About: Garrett Wilson, New York Jets - Verdict: not settled yet - **A.J.
