Fantasy Soccer Week 7 Vast Receiver Preview: Waiver provides, begins, sits, stashes, and extra

What a day! In case you missed the information, Davante Adams is now on the New York Jets. Amari Cooper is now on the Buffalo Bills. I wrote up the Adams trade, and Dan Schneier wrote up Cooper to the Payments. In fact, we broke down each offers over on the Fantasy Football Today podcast as properly. Whereas everybody is happy for Adams, Cooper, Josh Allen, and Aaron Rodgers, there could also be some purpose to be cautiously optimistic concerning the move catchers left behind as properly.

In Las Vegas, we have already seen how good Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers might be with out Adams. Bowers is TE2 on the season and TE1 in my Dynasty tight finish rankings. Do not anticipate both to alter any time quickly. Meyers is coping with an ankle damage, however he is seen 28 targets in his final three video games and averaged 14.1 PPR FPPG in these three video games. He may be a must-start vast receiver in three-receiver leagues as soon as he will get wholesome.

The state of affairs is a little more difficult in Cleveland as a result of, surprisingly, Deshaun Watson has been worse than each Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell. Nonetheless, David Njoku simply noticed seven targets final week, and that was with Cooper on the sector. He is in all probability a must-start tight finish, however that is not too stunning. What’s extra stunning is that Jerry Jeudy could also be a Fantasy starter as properly.

Jeudy has 4 fewer catches, two fewer yards, and one fewer landing than Cooper this season even if Cooper has seen 17 extra targets. Whereas Jeudy hasn’t been environment friendly in any respect, he has averaged 2.2 extra yards per goal than Cooper and .04 extra yards per route. His goal share ought to spike because the WR1 with Cooper gone. If the Browns might be even marginally higher (they can not be worse), Jeudy might be a serviceable WR3 or higher. 

Right here is the remainder of the Week 7 WR Preview:
