BALLER MOVE: Sit in 14-Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Evan Engram returned to the Jaguars' lineup, improving the offense. It came at the cost of Christian Kirk's production.
Engram has been involved in the Jacksonville game plan for four weeks (he injured his hamstring pregame in Week 2). Kirk has one catch in three of those four games and topped out at 39 yards. He finished with negative yardage in Week 2. The former Texas A&M Aggie earned double-digit targets in two of the three games without Engram and averaged 76 yards.
No one on the Jaguars has out targeted Evan Engram in any game he has played this season
Over the past 3 weeks Christian Kirk has aimed target shares of 12%, 17%, and 16%

There's a clear hierarchy on the Jacksonville offense. Engram and Brian Thomas Jr. are the favorite targets, with Engram operating in the short-to-intermediate range and Thomas doing a bit of everything. When everyone is available, Kirk is an afterthought.
It's tough to start the slot receiver until there's a shakeup (like Kirk getting traded to another team). He's a low-ceiling WR4 against the Green Bay Packers.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
