BALLER MOVE: Sit in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR66
ANALYSIS: New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard has always been a trustworthy target for Aaron Rodgers. The veteran wide receiver was a massive bust in his first year with the Jets. However, he has been productive with Rodgers back under center this season.
Lazard has scored 12.3 or more half-point PPR fantasy points in two of three contests this year, including last week. The veteran caught three targets for 48 receiving and a touchdown against the New England Patriots in the Week 3 win over the New England Patriots.
Rodgers. Lazard. SIX!

While the RotoBaller rankings have Lazard as a sit this week, I believe he has flex appeal in Week 4. New York is facing the Denver Broncos and Patrick Surtain II. The superstar cornerback will likely shadow Garrett Wilson, forcing Rodgers to lean on his other weapons.
Fantasy players should start Lazard as a low-end WR3 or a flex option, especially if they have multiple injuries at the wide receiver position. While he won’t score 20 fantasy points, the veteran should have another double-digit performance.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
