Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Getting Only a Few Targets Each Week

Friday, November 7, 8:34 PM

Miami Dolphins Nick Westbrook-Ikhine continues to operate as the team's third receiver behind Jaylen Waddle and Malik Washington. He has drawn a total of 11 targets over the last three weeks while playing over 65% of snaps each week. He had two catches for 22 yards against the Ravens in Week 9, which was actually his best yardage production of the season. He hasn't been able to put up big totals in the dink and dunk offense of the Dolphins, and that doesn't seem likely to change in Week 10 against the Bills. He brings a little touchdown-dependent upside, but he's only the No. 70 WR in RotoBaller's rankings, so there are probably better options available in most formats.

Troy Franklin Continues Emergence as Broncos WR1

Friday, November 7, 12:04 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin caught his fourth touchdown in four weeks in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He finished with five catches for 40 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's victory. Broncos head coach Sean Payton has consistently schemed Franklin into the offense as the season has progressed, and Franklin once again paced the team in targets with nine. The 22-year-old continued to have some disappointing plays, one in particular in which he earned a target that could've been a good chunk of yardage, which bounced off his chest to become an interception in the fourth quarter. After finishing with five catches for 40 yards and a touchdown, Franklin certainly rewarded those who trusted him enough as a WR3/ flex option in Week 10 lineups, and he will look to find the end zone again in next Sunday's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
