The Bargain Bin - WR Edition

The Bargain Bin - WR Edition

You will begin to notice my trend here as I load up vs the dreadful Atlanta defense.  While their pass D (6 TD's) isn't near as bad as the rush D (12 TD's)...It's not good either in large part due to their pathetic pass rush.  Rumor has it Jonathan Massaquoi will be getting more reps, so there might actually be some increased pressure on Flacco this coming week.

Steve Smith ($6,700)/ Torrey Smith ($4,400) - Steve Smith will garner more catches in his new role with the Ravens but Torrey is sooo attractive at this cost.  Torrey Smith is warming up quickly and it seems his demons may be in the rear view mirror now.  Torrey Smith's catches have increased in each of his last four games and this trend will continue vs the Atlanta defense that just can't stop running water.


Andre Holmes ($4,800) vs Arizona - The Cardinals are the worst in the league vs the pass.  They are averaging over 300 yards per game stopping the pass and Derek Carr seems like he's catching on at a quick pace.  This feels like a nice set up for the entire Oakland passing attack including Derek Carr ($5,800), James Jones ($5,100), and Andre Holmes ($4,800).

Reuben Randle ($5,300) vs Dallas - The Cowboys defense just keeps holding up.  It is a very bend don't break defense.  If Eli can be good Eli instead of bad Eli, Randle will compile some very nice numbers with Victor Cruz out of the picture with a season ending injury.  This will be the cheapest price he will be moving forward.

Other Notable Players From The Bin

Michael Floyd ($5,000) vs Oakland - Oakland's pass D has held up but Carson Palmer and Michael Floyd seem to get along pretty well.

Golden Tate ($5,900) vs New Orleans - With Calvin likely sitting out another game and Detroit facing a bad Saints defense, I think Golden Tate takes the bull by the horns.

Odell Beckham Jr ($4,600) vs Dallas - Beckham benefits greatly with Cruz gone.  His snap count will likely double.

Michael Crabtree ($4,900) vs Denver - If Crabtree can build off his nice second half performance vs the Rams, the momentum could make a strong performance vs a middle of the road secondary.  The 49ers spread the ball around quite a bit.  A little risky but a good price.


I enjoy the feedback and welcome any questions you may have.
