BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer has had two games in a row with over 60 receiving yards and scored a touchdown in his Week 9 game against the Cleveland Browns. That doesn't make him a good starter, though. He still isn't getting enough targets to be reliable in fantasy football yet.

Busted coverages happen, and it took one for the fourth-year pro to finally get his first touchdown of the season after nine total contests. He doesn't have the targets, yardage, receptions, or touchdowns to help your fantasy teams win, and he's taken a clear backseat to both rookie WR Ladd McConkey and second-year man Quentin Johnston.
Even when Johnston was injured, Palmer didn't see a significant workload. He hasn't had the ball thrown his way more than five times in a game yet, and that's unlikely to change. The team probably drafted McConkey knowing that Palmer wasn't capable of being the WR1, and they'd rather have him as their WR3 than WR2.

Palmer isn't even worth rostering in most leagues.
