Wan'Dale Robinson a PPR Sleeper with Large Target Share Expected

Saturday, September 5, 3:10 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson currently has an ADP of 130.8, and he's emerging as a potential sleeper in PPR leagues because of his anticipated role. Robinson is coming off a fantastic season with the Giants, catching 92 of his 140 targets for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns. He's not a major threat for otherworldly yardage or touchdown totals, but he was peppered with targets in New York, and that trend should continue in Tennessee. First of all, the Titans gave him a four-year, $78 million contract, demonstrating a financial commitment to getting him heavily involved, especially as rookie Carnell Tate adjusts to the NFL. Furthermore, Robinson's new offensive coordinator in Tennessee is Brian Daboll, who was the Giants' head coach for the first portion of last season. Assuming Daboll's Titans offense looks similar to his Giants offense, Robinson should continue to fetch a very high target share, making him a very appealing target in PPR leagues, especially at his current ADP. Robinson has top-25 receiver upside after finishing as the WR14 last year, yet he's being drafted as the WR46 this year. That's a major discrepancy and could be an opportunity for managers to get a steal in the 10th round of fantasy drafts.

RapSheet: De'Zhaun Stribling Likely to Miss Time

Friday, September 11, 5:20 AM

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) will likely miss time, according to Ian Rapoport. Stribling limped off the field, went to the medical tent, returned, and then went down with a non-contact injury that appeared to be significant. The good news is that head coach Kyle Shanahan deemed it an ankle injury and that his Achilles tendon was intact. The rookie receiver was held without a target against the Los Angeles Rams but led the 49ers wideouts in snaps after three drives, playing more than Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel, and Demarcus Robinson, all of whom scored touchdowns in Week 1. While we won't know the full diagnosis until the team returns to the States, fantasy managers shouldn't drop the young, talented receiver.
