Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Dayton Wade continued to be the top pass-catcher in both targets and receiving yards on Saturday afternoon. This time, the rookie out of Ole Miss registered a big-time scoring play in the third quarter while working with fellow rookie Emory Jones. Wade was targeted four times in this contest and caught two of them for 67 yards and a touchdown. His biggest play was a 56-yard catch-and-run where he used a great stutter-step move to fake out the defensive back and break free. Once he was wide open, Jones delivered a perfect ball and Wade trotted in for the score. After two preseason games, Wade has six receptions on nine targets for 94 yards and one touchdown. With Devontez Walker (ribs) ailing from a rib injury, Wade could be playing himself higher up on the depth chart than expected.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Dayton Wade received the most targets out of all the wideouts on Friday. In the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Wade caught four of his five targets for 27 yards including a 13-yard catch for his longest play of the day. Wade was an undrafted free agent out of Ole Miss and looks to compete for an end-of-the-depth chart type of role. At the moment, the Ravens have 13 receivers listed on the unofficial depth chart, so there's going to be a big rotation throughout the preseason to narrow down the roster. If Wade continues to get open, he could find his way on to the team, but it likely won't make him fantasy relevant this year.
