So, hit that subscribe button, comment, stick around, but let’s dive in these week n halfpoint PPR wide receiver rankings. Number one, as you can see, we’ve got Puka Nua against New Orleans. He should have beat back. He’s supposed to be practicing as well before that game goes. Uh he is, you know, his usage, all that stuff has been out of this world. Jackson Smith Nigba against Washington. Another another guy who’s been fantastic this year. Jamar Chase against the Jets. I believe that actually they played the Jets last week. That’s a different matchup. They’re playing Chicago. Yeah. So that was a mistake. But anyway, um if they’re playing in Chicago, if Joe uh Flaco is out there, Jamar Chase is probably my number one play on the week or him and Puka. Um he’s had 54 targets over his three starts with Joe Burrow. Absolutely insane volume and he’s obviously a super talented wide receiver. So, you’re going to continue to play him with a ton of confidence every game that Flaco plays and you’re going to play him regardless if he doesn’t cuz he’s Jamar Chase. Four, Rasheed Rice against Buffalo. Uh they’re going to need him in this one, I believe. Even Rashid Rice is just super involved in this passing game. Picked up right where he left off last year. He’s a top five receiver to me rest of season. Five CD Lamb against Arizona. They do have one of the better corners in football and Will Johnson. He’s a rookie, but he’s very good. Um, so something to watch for there, but again, it’s CD Lamb. I’m not worried about that. They move him all over the formation into the slot. There’s ways to get away from good corners. Six, Aman Rosane Brown against Minnesota. Another guy’s been fantastic for fantasy this year. Seven, Justin Jefferson against Detroit. This one is a little worrisome. First start for JJ McCarthy in some time. We’ve seen him struggle. Um, but it’s Justin Jefferson and this is a good matchup. So, I’m going to throw him out there. Eight, Drake London against New England. Uh, he missed this last game, but usually the targets, the volume, we’ve seen him have very explosive games. And I think, you know, he’s the number one in that passing offense. So, he’s going to be more consistent than people think as well or what he’s shown so far this season. Nine, Devonte Adams against New Orleans. He’s got a great chance of a touchdown in this one. Even with Puka back, he’s still a top 10 wide receiver to me. 10. Roma Dunce against Cincinnati. That should be a great matchup for Rome in that one. He had 114 this last week. He is fine. George Pickkins against Arizona. Good matchup for him. And if he is playing, you know, Will Johnson’s lined up outside against CD. Maybe he gets an extra target or something like that. 12. Nico Collins against Denver. Certain is out. So that’s a big plus for him. He’s definitely was definitely going to be following Nico Collins, the reigning defensive player of the year. Um, but he’s out for four to six weeks, but I do worry about the Denver pass rush getting to CJ Straoud. Uh, and that offensive line just tearing them up and not giving enough time to get out to Nico. But the certain thing upgrades him, but still it’s a tough defense with Denver and their teams, how they match up stylistically to me. 13, we’ve got Michael Pitman Jr. against Pittsburgh. Good matchup for him. He’s been phenomenal this season. and we had him as a top 10 or nine play something like that last week and he hit again. 14 lad makunki against Tennessee. Good matchup for Lad. Um I him and Kian Allen go back and forth between who I is my favorite wide receiver on that team, but they’re both good options. 15 DK Metave against Indie. He got the touchdown this last week. He’s always capable of big plays and he’s, you know, gets targets in that offense. So you’re going to play him every week. 16 Brian Thomas Jr. I know it hasn’t been what you’ve been hoping for, but this is a good matchup for him. coming off the buy. I think his mind will be a little fresher. I think he’s going to have a good game this week. 17 Keenan Allen. He’s drawing close to 40% target rate in the red zone. You love that. Tennessee’s defense has been awful. If they decide to throw, they can do what they want. 18 Chris, he would be higher on this list, but Tyler Shuck, new quarterback. Uh tough match up against the Rams. That’s why he’s a little lower at 18. He’s usually probably at that 15 range, I would say. Jaylen Waddle against Baltimore. Great match up for him. He’s currently the wide receiver 12 on the year. They obviously need him in that passing game. Tyreek out and the situation around him. 20. We got Debo Samuel against Seattle. Debo is going to be, you know, the only guy standing basically again that passing game with Terry McLaren out with a thigh injury again. He hurt his quad. 21 Z Flowers against Miami. I think on paper it’s not the best matchup. I’m not worried about any of that at all. Their offense will be able to do whatever they want. Some teams are so bad on defense that they’re great out well against wide receivers, but really it’s just because the teams don’t have to throw the ball in the second half because they can do what they want to them the entire game. 22, Marvin Harrison Jr. against Dallas. Great matchup for Marv. 23. Courtland Sutton plays Houston. Not what you wanted last week, but still better days ahead. McMillan against Green Bay. I know you got lower expectations on McMillan, that’s for sure. We knew this offensive quarterback situation, things like that weren’t good going in and he hasn’t quite got the volume that we hope for to get him the rest of the way there either. So, um, he’s still a guy to hang on to. Just remember, two, rookie wide receivers typically scored 20% more points over the second half of the season. We’re in week nine right now, just about halfway. So, look for rookie wide receivers to get a bump moving forward as we go on here. 25 T. Higgins against Chicago. Again, Joe Flacco playing makes a major difference on this ranking. 26, Stefon Diggs against Atlanta. He’s the number one that offense. Drake May is spinning it. 27, Juan Delale Robinson against San Francisco. He should get a ton of targets like he got last year as well. 28, Quinton Johnson against Tennessee. He’s always got that chance of a touchdown. Wide receivers are up and down. Especially a guy like him. You can still He’s a very viable play though every single week to me with how good this offense is. You’re just kind of doing a crap roll at wide receiver and seeing how it works out. Xavier Worthy against Buffalo. This one might be a game where they need worthy. And then 30, DJ Moore against Cincinnati in a great matchup. Honorable mention, Khil Shakir in that same matchup as worthy. That could be a high-scoring game. We’ve seen that in the past. I don’t think this one’s going to be quite as highscoring though as some of the ones that we’ve seen in recent years. Those are my wide receiver rankings, though.
