Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

ROSTERED IN: 29% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Three weeks in a row, folks. Three weeks of WR2 play (at the very least) coming from a guy that is not even rostered in a third of Yahoo leagues with three weeks (most probably just two in your fantasy league) of play to go. That's Amon-Ra St.Brown for you, and you definitely should be rushing to your WW to snatch some shares of the Lions wideout before it's too late.

ASB has been around all year long, but it wasn't until W13 that he had his true explosion. QB Jared Goff definitely had not helped through the year, but now that the veteran quarterback has gotten his excrement together things are flashing for rookie WR ASB. St. Brown has posted at least 73 yards, 8 receptions, and seen 11+ targets in three games in a row. He's put up marks of 24.8, 15.3, and lately a 23.5-PPR tally against Arizona. He's scored his first two touchdowns of the season in the past three weeks, and he's turned into Detroit's staple guy on offense.

It takes a brave man to trust Goff going forward. Even then, though, ASB is getting massive amounts of volume when it comes to targets, he's catching more than anyone would have though even on that heavy dosage of looks, and the 2 TDs in three games are adding spice to St. Brown's meal. Don't believe in ASB as a bona fide WR1 ROS, but make sure to roster and straight start him at the WR3/Flex slots no matter the type of league you play in.
