WIDE RECEIVER

Mike Evans ($7900) Buccaneers vs. Raiders – Evans has been a favorite of mine all season and I don’t see any reason not to put him here again this week. Everything I said above about Winston applies here to Winston as this is a prime match up again this weekend. Evans continues to be force fed the ball with double digit targets in 5 consecutive games. He already has 6 TD’s this season and I think this is another game he will score in.

Larry Fitzgerald ($7000) Cardinals @ Panthers – Prior history would tell us that the Panther D secondary is not one to pick on but it just hasn’t held true this season. Fitzgerald is having a great season again this year and continues to be Palmer’s favorite target. He has caught at least 5 balls in every single game this season and is always a threat in the red zone. I think the Cardinals make for a sneaky target this week and one that nobody else will be on.

Doug Baldwin ($7200) Seahawks @ Saints – Baldwin’s 14 touchdowns last season looks like it could have been a fluke as he has only 2 this season and never scored more than 5 in his career. His targets and receptions have been fairly consistent this season but he just hasn’t had any great games with the exception of week 3. This week seems like his best chance to take advantage of a terrible defense in a highly projected game. Russell Wilson hasn’t looked fully healthy this year, but I don’t think he will have a problem finding Baldwin early and often this week.

Others I Like – Brandon Marshall ($7400), Julio Jones ($9200), Amari Cooper ($7500)

Next: Tight End
