Fantasy Impact: This is just a reminder that Green is still monster fantasy player who appears to still be getting better. He is arguably the best wide receiver right now for fantasy purposes (obviously depending on your scoring) and is a must-start WR1 every week, even within an occasionally plodding offense. Pat yourself on the back if you picked Green up on draft day.
