WIDE RECEIVER

Terrelle Pryor ($7000) Browns @ Redskins – Everyone’s favorite guy in fantasy is the gadget guy that gets stats rushing receiving and now passing. Pryor was a QB turned WR turned back into QB last week for the Browns, having a monster week 3 and putting him on the radar every week moving forward. The biggest thing to note is that he received 14 targers from rookie Cody Kessler and caught 8 balls for 144 yards. Everyone is excited about the possibility of him getting passing stats, but the consistency will come from receiving. He did attempt 5 passes and completed three of them for 35 yards while also adding 21 yards rushing. If he continues to get 14 looks, he is in play regardless of the rest. Of course that certainly seals the deal when looking at Pryor. The Redskins are bottom 10 in the league in both run defense and pass defense.

Kelvin Benjamin ($7700) Panthers @ Falcons – This certainly is a “squeaky wheel” play as Benjamin inexplicably caught no passes last week having been targeted only 1 time. Cam Newton was vocal about it this week saying that will not happen again this season. Benjamin had caught 13 balls for 199 yards and 3 TD’s in the first two weeks to the goose egg he gave owners certainly came as a surprise. The Falcons are currently 29th in the NFL against the pass, allowing 313 yards per game. You can bet that Cam will be forcing the ball Benjamin’s way early and often as he might see 4 or 5 target on their very first possession.

Travis Benjamin ($6600) Chargers vs. Saints – Much like everything said about the Chargers above, I really like them as a whole this week. Benjamin has seen an uptick in looks since Keenan Allen went down and is Phillip Rivers most trusted weapon at this point. He also provides the big play upside that can turn a quick screen pass into a 40 yard game. He is averaging 100 yards and a touchdown since Allen went down and will continue to be the most consistent receiver in San Diego. For a price tag of only $6600, he has a chance to blow that out of the water.

Others I Like – Marvin Jones ($7600), Emmanuel Sanders ($6900), Will Fuller ($6700)

Next: Tight End
