WIDE RECEIVERS

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Luther Burden (17% rostered)

With Rome Odunze sidelined with a stress fracture in his foot, Burden logged season/career-highs in route share (64.1%) and target share (17.1%), per FantasyPoints.

The 39th overall pick led the team in targets (6) and receiving yards (67), and with Odunze deemed week-to-week, the rookie could be a huge fantasy factor for the stretch run.

Recommended FAAB: 16-18%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Chimere Dike (15% rostered)

In Week 14, Dike ranked 7th among all wide receivers in Weighted Opportunity Rating (83) and 6th in targets per route run (0.36), resulting in a 8-5-24-1 statline.

The rookie has led all Titans pass-catchers in route share in each of the past three weeks and the Titans have the 6th-highest dropback rate over expected (+4%) over the past month, per FantasyLife.

Recommended FAAB: 8-10%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Pat Bryant (3% rostered)

Week 14 PFF Grade: 62.6 (44th out of 74 qualifying wide receivers)

In each of Denver’s two games since their Week 12 bye, Bryant has operated as the Broncos’ clear WR2 behind Courtland Sutton. He has surpassed Troy Franklin in both route share (70.3% to 54.9%) and target share (14.5% to 8.4%) over the last two weeks, and the Broncos have the 3rd-highest dropback rate over expected (+6%) over the past month, per FantasyLife.

Recommended FAAB: 4-6%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Devaughn Vele (19% rostered)

Week 14 PFF Grade: 68.2 (t-30th out of 74 qualifying wide receivers)

For the second straight week, Vele tied for the team lead in target share (21.1% in Week 13, 25.0% in Week 14).

While the result was a disappointing 5-3-40 statline, the Saints have the 9th-best schedule for fantasy wide receivers for the fantasy playoffs, per RotoViz. Additionally, their offense has been playing with the fastest pace in the league since Week 8 by plays per minute over expected, per FantasyLife.

Recommended FAAB: 3-5%

WIDE RECEIVERS
➕ Add Ryan Flournoy (1% rostered)

CeeDee Lamb sustained a concussion in Week 14, and Ryan Flournoy stepped in for him with an impressive 13-9-115-1 performance.

While Lamb is reportedly “progressing nicely” through concussion protocol and has had a few extra days to recover after playing on TNF, Flournoy would be deserving of a spot start in the event that Lamb is unable to go this week.

Recommended FAAB: 3-5%

RUNNING BACKS

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Blake Corum (33% rostered)

Corum has been extremely impressive in his second season, ranking 2nd among 45 qualifying running backs in rush yards over expected per attempt (1.2), per Next Gen Stats.

While he’s proven to have standalone value against inferior opponents, his true value lies in being the clear handcuff to Kyren Williams. Were Kyren to go down, Corum has true league-winning upside.

Recommended FAAB: 25-30%

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Jaylen Wright (4% rostered)

With De’Von Achane exiting with a rib injury, Jaylen Wright ran for a career-high 107 yards and a touchdown in Week 14.

According to Next Gen Stats, Wright forced 5 missed tackles on the ground, which tied his career high, and gained 30 yards after missed tackles and 91 yards after contact, both career highs. He also logged 3 explosive runs (10+ yards) after having just one such play this season.

HC Mike McDaniel noted on Monday, per The Coachspeak Index, that Achane was clear during the game that he could go back out and play if needed. While it sounds like Achane could be fine for Week 15, Wright would be the clear lead back were he to sit.

Recommended FAAB: 12-14%

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Chris Rodriguez (36% rostered)

Week 14 PFF Grade: 69.0 (18th out of 45 qualifying running backs)

In each of the Commanders’ last 3 games, Rodriguez has led the team in rush attempt share - he’s the clear lead back.

Because he doesn’t catch passes, Rodriguez is a touchdown-dependent back in a backfield where Jeremy McNichols and Jacory Croskey-Merritt are still involved.

However, he could be startable in a pinch down the stretch - the Commanders have 7th-best schedule for running backs for the fantasy playoffs, per RotoViz.

Recommended FAAB: 10-12%

RUNNING BACKS
➕ Add Dylan Sampson (12% rostered)

Week 14 PFF Grade: 59.8

Sampson had a nice role as a pass-catcher in Week 14, turning 6 targets into a 5-64 statline. His 11.9% target share tied for second on the team, and his 48.9% route share was a season-high, per FantasyPoints.

Jerome Ford was placed on Injured Reserve today with a shoulder injury, clearing the path for Sampson to operate as Cleveland’s clear RB2. He offers standalone value given his role as a pass-catcher as well as contingent upside were something to happen to Quinshon Judkins.

Recommended FAAB: 6-8%

TIGHT ENDS

TIGHT ENDS
➕ Add Harold Fannin Jr. (40% rostered)

Since Shedeur Sanders took over the starting role in Week 12, Harold Fannin Jr. is averaging 15.4 fantasy points per game (TE4 overall in that span).

The rookie has cemented himself as the Browns’ starting tight end, posting a season/career-high 92.2% snap share in Week 14. On the contrary, David Njoku logged just a 10.9% snap share, his lowest of the season by a mile. His previous low was 42.7% in Week 6, per FantasyPoints.

The Fannin Jr. breakout is for real, and I’m certain that this will be the last week I’m able to write about him as an add.

Recommended FAAB: 17-23%

TIGHT ENDS
➕ Add Mike Gesicki (2% rostered)

Week 14 PFF Grade: 91.9 (2nd out of 43 qualifying tight ends)

Gesicki balled out in Week 14, turning a season-high 16.7% target share into a season-high 20.6 fantasy points, per FantasyPoints.

With Tee Higgins back in concussion protocol and potentially facing additional missed time, Gesicki would be a big-time beneficiary in his absence.

Recommended FAAB: 8-10%

TIGHT ENDS
➕ Add Isaiah Likely (7% rostered)

Over the past three weeks, Isaiah Likely has earned a 16.7% target share to Mark Andrews’ 13.3%, despite logging a lower route share (47.7% to Andrews’ 70.6%). Likely posted a 6-4-25-1 statline in Week 14, and arguably should’ve had another score that was ruled an incompletion.

While Mark Andrews will remain in his role, Likely has proven an ability to earn targets and produce for fantasy, albeit on a limited route share. Fantasy managers needing an upside TE add should consider Likely, as the Ravens have the best fantasy playoff schedule for tight ends, per RotoViz.

Recommended FAAB: 5-7%

TIGHT ENDS
➕ Add AJ Barner (12% rostered)

Week 14 PFF Grade: 59.3 (28th out of 43 qualifying tight ends)

Fellow TE Elijah Arroyo left Seattle’s Week 14 contest with a knee injury, and his Week 15 availability is “probably in jeopardy”, per HC Mike Macdonald.

If Arroyo is ruled out, Barner, who has been productive for fantasy when given a full allotment of routes, could be worthy of a spot start for fantasy managers needing tight end help. The Seahawks get the Colts in Week 15, the 7th-best matchup for fantasy tight ends, per RotoViz.

Recommended FAAB: 4-6%
