BALLER MOVE: Start at WR in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams has been hurt by the chaos at the Raiders' quarterback position. He had nine 100-yard games in 2022, but he only has two this season, and heading into Week 17, he has still not surpassed 1,000 yards on the season.
Adams does get targeted a lot, and he has high-end upside. He has finished as the WR1 once and as a top-10 WR three times this season. He is coming off a game in which he completely flopped, catching just one pass on six targets for four yards. It was his second week finishing outside of the top-100 WRs.
The Raiders' opponent in Week 17, the Indianpolis Colts, are not an easy matchup for fantasy receivers. The Colts have allowed the tenth-fewest receiving yards to receivers and only 12 touchdowns. Davante Adams ranks as the No. 43 flex option in RotoBaller's Week 17 PPR rankings and the WR19. That makes him a low-end WR2.
