The wide receivers who saw the most targets this past week of NFL action contain some very familiar names. Julian Edelman has had double-digit targets in each of his last four games. The same is true of DeAndre Hopkins. Mike Evans has three games this season in which he has commanded 10 or more targets. Here’s the full list of WRs who commanded at least…...

Kyle Rudolph did virtually nothing to justify my faith in him last week, as he delivered a dud on Thursday Night. To be fair to Kyle, his team’s firm commitment towards #EstablishingTheRun meant that it was hardly a day for any pass catcher. But my mood was lifted over the weekend by the showings from Jonnu Smith and Dallas Goedert. Smith posted 19.8 PPR points…...

The list of the most targeted wide receivers in Week 8 contained a host of familiar names, many of whom enjoyed banner weeks in both reality and fantasy football. Mike Evans of the Buccaneers had his second game this season with 190-plus receiving yards. Julian Edelman had his first game of the season with at least two touchdowns. Julio Jones proved that he doesn’t need…...

One of our streamers scored 15.7 PPR points in week 7! This is not a drill! It’s also not something we should get too excited about, as the player in question was Hunter Henry. I stressed last week that Henry would be a one-week streaming option before entering the realm of every week starter. This has happened, and if you didn’t land him, you need…...

A host of familiar faces dominated the wide receiver landscape in Week 7 of the 2019 NFL season. In all, 12 players commanded double-digit targets, with Allen Robinson of the Bears leading the way with 16. Here’s the full list of WRs who commanded at least 10 targets in the last week of NFL action. Double-Digit Targets in Week 7 QUICK THOUGHTS Tyler Boyd has…...

The prospects of success for the Week 6 tight end streamers were slim going into the games. They got a hell of a lot slimmer with the news that Jets TE Chris Herndon had injured himself working out prior to his return from suspension, and wouldn’t actually play in Week 6. Then, the games happened. Jeremy Sprinkle posted just 4.4 PPR points against the Dolphins. Gerald…...

Week 6 saw the 2019 Stefon Diggs coming out party, as the Vikings wide receiver torched the Eagles secondary to the tune of seven receptions, 167 yards, and three touchdowns. The 43.5 PPR points he scored on Sunday more than doubled his entire 2019 production. Tyreek Hill also made his return after suffering a shoulder injury in Week 1. His 25 PPR points on Sunday…...

Week 5 was an absolute disaster. I am big enough to admit this. It was a week where Darren Fells and Ryan Izzo commanded a total of four targets, yet both finished inside the top eight PPR performers. As for the three players I recommended last week, Jesus wept … let’s get this over with. Jimmy Graham was TE18 with 7.1 points. Tyler Eifert amassed the…...

It was a bonanza week for players like Will Fuller and Michael Thomas in Week 5, with both players eclipsing 40 PPR points. Fuller actually posted the ninth greatest PPR outing by a WR of all time. This was a welcome boom week after Fuller amassed just 32.3 points in his first four games of the 2019 season. I’m not sure how many more times he’ll…...

In his last week as a viable streamer, Will Dissly did us all proud in Week 4. With 18.7 PPR points against the ever so tight end friendly Cardinals, Dissly finished Week 4 as the overall TE2. Dissly is now owned in 67.3% of ESPN leagues, making him out of our reach for the time being. But I’ll forget what he did over the last…...

For the third week in a row, the number of wide receivers seeing double-digit targets dropped. But this was the most dramatic drop off of the lot. Fifteen WRs commanded at least 10 targets in Week 3. This week, that number fell to only eight. Here’s the full list of target leaders. Double-Digit Targets in Week 4 QUICK THOUGHTS Cooper Kupp’s recovery from an ACL…...

I’ll admit, I was not overly hopeful about the streaming options going into Week 3. On the whole, I was not disappointed about not being disappointed. Jason Witten finished as the TE18 with an underwhelming 8.4 PPR points. Tyler Eifert averaged a whopping 18 yards per reception … but only had one reception. The saving grace was Will Dissly, who finished as the TE6 on…...

We are back again to showcase the wide receivers that saw the most targets in the past week of NFL action. Fifteen WRs commanded at least 10 targets in Week 3, which is down from 21 players in Week 1 and 16 players last week. Here’s the full list of target leaders. Double-Digit Targets in Week 3 QUICK THOUGHTS Still No Davante? Davante Adams’ continued…...

It didn’t take long, but Week 3 marks the first visit to the tight end wasteland of the 2019 season. The options are not great, especially given Darren Waller’s ascension to “every week starter” status following his TE8 finish in Week 2. For the second week in a row, Waller came to my rescue as the only one of my three suggestions to actually bear…...

Week 1 saw a whopping 21 wide receivers command at least ten targets in the NFL. Week 2 saw this number drop to 16. Let’s take a look at the players who received the lions share of their teams’ targets in the past week of NFL action. Double-Digit Targets Week 2 As usual, it is not surprising to see the big names among the most…...

If you focus on the fact that I suggested Darren Waller as a streamer in Week 1, even before the Antonio Brown drama at the end of the week, then you would say I had a good first week. So let’s do that. There really is no need to focus on the disappointing outings from Jack Doyle (3.0 PPR points) and Noah Fant (4.4). Waller’s…...

After every week in 2019, the Wide Receiver Target Report will show you which players attracted the most attention in the passing game. We’ll be taking a look at the cold hard stats, like receptions and PPR points. But we’ll also be keeping a close eye on target share. This allows us to readily identify the players most heavily looked for, which can be information…...

There is no more volatile position in the world of fantasy sport than that of the tight end. While you may feel obligated to keep trotting out the same guy week after week, much like you do with car insurance renewals, your loyalty is actually hampering you. Go out into the world, and see what else you can find! With this in mind, I will…...
