Colby Parkinson vs George Pickens: Who Should You Start?

Comparing Colby Parkinson (TE, Los Angeles Rams) against George Pickens (WR, Dallas Cowboys) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Colby Parkinson averaged 7.2 PPG in 2025 over 15 games, while George Pickens posted 14.4 PPG across 17 games.

Cross-position FLEX decisions cannot be made on PPG alone. Positional scarcity, matchup quality, floor versus ceiling, and league scoring format all shift the answer. A 14 PPG tight end in a thin TE week is often worth more than a 16 PPG receiver in a deep WR week, because the opportunity cost on the waiver wire is wildly different.

DraftCall's AI engine weighs all of these signals and returns a verdict with clear reasoning, so you are not cross-referencing four different rankings tabs on a Sunday morning.

Colby Parkinson has his bye in Week 6, George Pickens in Week 7. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.
