Buying WRs HIGH Post-NFL Draft | Underworld Weekly

Money or picks burning a hole in your pocket? Podfather says get THESE FIVE wideouts!

May 01, 2026

1. Michael Wilson

Wilson posted five 20+ point weeks with a backup QB last year, which is very difficult to discount. He looked the part, squeezing the football in traffic, getting wide open on double moves, and securing acrobatic catches in the deep quadrants. His versatility is also more aligned with the modern alpha WR profile than teammate Marvin Harrison Jr.

On the other hand, his spike weeks manifested after Marv went down. In his two fantasy WR1 games (33.5 and 37.2 fantasy points respectively), Brissett averaged 50+ pass attempts.

Bottom line: Brissett is going to be under center one way or the other, and the Cardinals will be playing from behind a lot in 2026. Fortunately, the QB and target share uncertainty in Arizona provides enough downward pressure on the trade market to acquire Wilson at a career high point.
