PPR rooms take him at pick 180, WR70, ahead of both half-PPR at 198 and standard at 185, so the market has typed him as a catch-volume piece before he's run an NFL route. The consensus projection is far less interested, 31 catches for 382 yards and WR101, and Atlanta is a hard place to need scoring, 26th in implied team totals with a week-one trip to Pittsburgh at a 19.8 implied number. That leaves roughly a 30-rank gap between the PPR price and the forecast with nothing on a pro ledger to break the tie. Rookies get drafted on reputation every summer and a few reward it, but with the offense this starved for expected points he'd need to beat his projection substantially just to return the pick, and the data offering that hope doesn't exist yet.", "writeup_generated_at": "2026-07-22T02:44:42.345573+00:00", "news": { "digest": "Zachariah Branch (hamstring) off injury report for Week 2 — The rookie was recently listed on Atlanta's injury report due to a hamstring injury, but he was able to play last week and is now off of the injury report entirely heading into Week 2.
