NFL rookie Christian Kirk is a 2018 wide receiver sleeper and fantasy football ADP draft value. Target him as an undervalued WR in your fantasy football drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target ~155
CURRENT ADP: ~185
ANALYSIS: Once your draft has advanced beyond Round 13, you will encounter a plethora of options that may look remarkably similar in value. But these choices should not be underestimated, because players that you choose from that point forward could bolster your team’s point totals during the season, and conceivably help propel you to a league championship.
Kirk provides the potential to become a resource for your roster, even as the rookie’s prospective workload is currently undefined. His ADP currently is languishing in Round 17, yet he has a genuine opportunity to capture WR2 responsibilities with Arizona if he continues to perform capably. His reliable hands and route running acumen appear to be helping him disentangle from the other receivers that are competing for a secondary role behind Larry Fitzgerald (Brice Butler/J.J. Nelson/Chad Williams).
He should eventually garner a sizable role in the Cardinal passing attack, which would place him in position to fortify your weekly scoring during the season. The other receivers that are available at that point of your drafts do not offer the same level of upside, which should be sufficient motivation for you to target him for the nominal investment of a 17th round pick.
