Fantasy Tiers

Parker Washington: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) WR (ranked #27 at the position). Theo Johnson: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) TE (ranked #24 at the position). Comparing across positions, raw PPG is less useful than positional scarcity. A Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) WR is harder to replace on waivers than a Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) TE in most league formats.

Parker Washington vs Theo Johnson: The Full Breakdown

Comparing Parker Washington (WR, Jacksonville Jaguars) against Theo Johnson (TE, New York Giants) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Parker Washington averaged 10.4 PPG in 2025 over 15 games, while Theo Johnson posted 7.0 PPG across 15 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.

Parker Washington has his bye in Week 7, Theo Johnson in Week 8. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.
