WIDE RECEIVERS

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Jayden Higgins (22% rostered)

Higgins has really emerged in Houston’s offense as of late, logging a career-high 30% target share in Week 12. His 0.43 targets per route run led all qualifying receivers this week, and his Weighted Opportunity Rating of 81 ranked 8th at the position.

Davis Mills just missed Higgins on several throws, and the rookie could’ve had a much bigger game. CJ Stroud has a chance to return this week, which should theoretically raise the ceiling of the Texans’ offense, which ranks 7th in Dropback Rate Over Expected (+2%), per FantasyLife.

Recommended FAAB: 14-20%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Luther Burden III (11% rostered)

Week 12 PFF Grade: 69.2 (26th among 83 qualifying wide receivers)

The rookie logged a career-high 50.8% snap share in Week 12, per FantasyPoints. While the result was just 9.1 fantasy points, the arrow is pointing up for the 39th overall pick, who ranks 11th among all qualifying wide receivers in yards per route run (2.32), per PFF.

Recommended FAAB: 8-12%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Chimere Dike (14% rostered)

Dike led all Titans pass-catchers in route share in Week 12 (86.0%), tying for the team lead in target share with 16.7%, per FantasyPoints. With Calvin Ridley out for the season and fellow rookie Elic Ayomanor battling a hamstring injury, Dike has emerged as Cam Ward’s top option. The Titans lead all teams in Dropback Rate Over Expected over the past month (+10%), meaning Dike should see plenty of opportunities.

Recommended FAAB: 10-15%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add John Metchie (1% rostered)

Metchie III logged season-highs in route share (88.2%) and target share (25.0%) in Week 12, per FantasyPoints. With Garrett Wilson still on Injured Reserve and AD Mitchell struggling with efficiency, Metchie III could emerge as the Jets’ top pass-catcher. Per RotoViz, New York has the 3rd-best schedule for fantasy wide receivers the rest of the way.

Recommended FAAB: 6-10%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Andrei Iosivas (20% rostered)

Week 12 PFF Grade: 74.1 (12th among 83 qualifying wide receivers)

With Tee Higgins out for Week 13 (concussion), Iosivas should continue to operate as the Bengals’ WR2 after leading the team with a season-high 18.4% target share in Week 12, per FantasyPoints. While the Ravens are the 5th-worst matchup for fantasy wide receivers according to RotoViz, Joe Burrow’s return to the lineup in a must-win game boosts the entire offense’s outlook.

Recommended FAAB: 7-10%

RUNNING BACKS

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Devin Neal (5% rostered)

Week 12 PFF Grade: 60.7 (33rd among 42 qualifying running backs)

Alvin Kamara suffered an MCL sprain in Week 12, and his recovery “could take a little time”. Rookie Devin Neal, who earned 7 targets for an impressive 16% target share in Week 12, is the next man up.

While he logged just 18 rushing yards on 7 carries, he turned in a strong 5-43 receiving statline, and the Saints have the 2nd-best schedule for fantasy running backs the rest of the season, per RotoViz.

Recommended FAAB: 16-30%

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Chris Rodriguez (18% rostered)

Week 11 PFF Grade: 63.5 (31st among 48 qualifying running backs)

In Week 11, before the Commanders’ bye, Chris Rodriguez led the backfield in snap share (45.3%), rush attempt share (45.5%), and route share (25.0%), per FantasyPoints.

While this backfield likely remains a messy committee with Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jeremy McNichols continuing to be involved, Rodriguez is worth adding as the Commanders have the 6th-best playoff schedule for fantasy running backs, per RotoViz.

Recommended FAAB: 16-23%

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Dylan Sampson (11% rostered)

While Quinshon Judkins appears to be fine, it is worth noting that he took a couple trips to the blue medical tent in Week 12.

Sampson made a splash with his increased opportunity, taking a screen pass 66 yards to the house. Although he struggled to do much else, HC Kevin Stefanski had this to say about the rookie on Monday, per The Coachspeak Index:

“I think we can definitely do a better job of getting [Sampson] involved early and often with Quinshon Judkins. He’s definitely earned a role.”

Cleveland has the 4th-best rest of season schedule for fantasy running backs, per RotoViz.

Recommended FAAB: 6-10%

TIGHT ENDS

TIGHT ENDS
➕ Add Brenton Strange (13% rostered)

While Brian Thomas’ potential return from injury could impact Strange’s path to targets, the now-healthy TE is averaging 10.3 fantasy points per game (TE15) in full games played this season, per FantasyPoints. Strange doesn’t profile as any sort of league-winner, but he’s deserving of an add if you’re in need of a startable asset at the position.

Recommended FAAB: 9-13%

TIGHT ENDS
➕ Add Mike Gesicki (2% rostered)

Week 12 PFF Grade: 69.1 (13th among 41 qualifying tight ends)

Gesicki logged season-highs in both route share (64.1%) and target share (15.8%) in Week 12, per FantasyPoints, and is startable in Week 13 with Tee Higgins missing due to concussion. With Joe Burrow returning to the lineup for a must-win game versus the Ravens, the outlook for all Bengals pass-catchers is improved.

Recommended FAAB: 5-7%
