BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues

ANALYSIS: Charles Clay was a non-factor during the first 70 percent of the season. After 11 games, he had not scored a touchdown or sniffed an 80-yard performance. In fact, he had more games with fewer than 10 receiving yards than games with over 50 yards. He was the walking advertisement of a fantasy failure.
I’m not sure what light bulbs went off in the heads of Clay, quarterback Tyrod Taylor or Buffalo’s coaching staff, but suddenly Clay is the second coming of Rob Gronkowski. He has 18 receptions for 209 yards and four touchdowns over his last three games, just when fantasy owners needed him to explode. It only took him almost two full seasons to finally mesh with the rest of the Bills’ offense.
Clay and his Bills get to finish the season against the creamiest cream puff in the NFL these days, the New York Jets. The Jets are waving more white flags than the South did during the end of the Civil War. There is no reason to think the Clay train will go off the rails this weekend, so pick him up and another 70 yards and a score could be headed your way.
