BALLER MOVE: Sit in All Leagues if Davante Adams Plays, Start in 12-Team PPR Leagues if Davante Adams Sits
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard has scored touchdowns in back-to-back games, but his Week 7 outlook is essentially out of his control on Monday night after the Jets traded for veteran wide receiver Davante Adams.
It's felt like the Jets have deployed Lazard opposite Garrett Wilson this season because it was the team's only choice. Now that Adams is in the fold, Lazard is likely to go back to playing a reserve role, so performances like his six-catch, 114-yard showing against Buffalo in Week 6 are a thing of the past.

Assuming Adams plays on Monday night, Lazard should stay on your fantasy bench. Don't drop him until we see how the new pecking order shakes out, but his floor is way too low if he's the clear No. 3 option in passing attack that has struggled so far this season.
