BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 0% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: We're already past the first double-digit week of games and going into the 11th gameday of the year. Yet we're still covering players with zero-percent rostership in Yahoo leagues. Something must be wrong here, right? Very right, indeed. Albert Wilson is a WW target entering W11 only because Miami has recently put a bunch of wideouts in IR, and perhaps also because of Tua's late injury scares and potential (not fulfilled) trade away from South Beach.
So, speaking of Dolphins into IR these days, here's the list: WR Will Fuller V (coming off it this week, though still highly questionable to play this weekend), WR DeVante Parker, RB Malcolm Brown, WR Lynn Bowden Jr., and WR Allen Hurns (among a bunch of others). Of course, all of this was the only reason and the key that opened the door for Wilson to have a sizable opportunity last TNF facing Baltimore: it was the first time this season (nine games played) Wilson was on the field for more than a 55% snap share, the second outing since W2 in which he was targeted more than twice (6 times in W2, 5 times last Thursday), and his first double-digit PPR-point outing as he reached 14.6 FP.
Wilson has missed ample time in recent seasons. He opted out of last season due to COVID issues, he only played 13 games in 2019 and 7 in 2018, and although he's on pace to play (at least a single snap) in all 17 games this season, he hasn't completed a full year since 2016 while still in Kansas City. Wilson had a promising-yet-cut-short 2018 campaign averaging 13.8 PPR points per game, but other than that he's always finished with a below-9-PPR average. Not the flashiest of options out there, I know, but still one worth rostering and playing at the WR3/Flex slot in deeper leagues while the main Miami weapons remain out.
