BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk is really struggling, which has helped rookie wideout Brian Thomas Jr. get off to a strong start.
In Week 1 against Miami, Thomas caught all four of his targets for 47 yards and a touchdown. Then last week against Cleveland, he was targeted four times again, catching two passes for 94 yards.
Malik Nabers had 10 catches for 127 yards and a TD on 18 targets today.
Why can’t the #Jaguars do that with Brian Thomas Jr.?
He had 2 catches today on 4 targets for 94 yards.
He’s a brand new Lamborghini with 20 miles on it.
Get the ball to No. 7!

He still trails Gabe Davis and Christian Kirk in playing time, but Thomas has been on the field for at least 70% of the team's snaps in both games so far. He's productive when he's out on the field, even with a relatively low target share.
There will be some bust weeks at some point for Thomas since he's reliant on big plays, but his high ceiling makes him a viable WR3 play against the Buffalo Bills in Week 3.
