Jakobi Meyers Should Continue to Succeed

Sunday, December 14, 8:42 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has become a popular target in this offense in recent weeks. Meyers currently carries a three-game touchdown streak into the Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets. Last week, Meyers saw 10 targets, which was his most since Week 2. The Jags are clearly leaning on him in the passing game, and that should continue this weekend. Meyers figures to continue having success against an average Jets secondary. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Meyers to offer WR2 upside for this home contest.

Jaylen Waddle Is a High-End WR2 Against the Steelers

Saturday, December 13, 6:08 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle will try to help the Dolphins secure their fifth straight win this Monday when they visit the Steelers. While the Dolphins have had a very low-volume passing attack in recent weeks, Waddle has remained a solid starting option in most formats because he is clearly the top option in the offense. Waddle has at least three catches and at least six targets in six straight games with three touchdowns and an average of 67.8 yards per game during that span. He had five catches for 50 yards and a touchdown last week against the Jets, and he will be in a solid matchup against the Steelers, who rank in the top 10 in fantasy points allowed to receivers this season. The Steelers have allowed 12 receiver touchdowns in 13 games, so Waddle has good potential for another productive week if he continues to get so many targets. In RotoBaller's Week 15 rankings, Waddle is the No. 11 WR, making him a low-end WR1 or a high-end WR2 in standard-sized leagues. He should be started in almost all formats since his production has been so reliably consistent.
