BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams had a disappointing performance last weekend as he caught just four of nine targets for 40 yards but should remain locked into all starting lineups this weekend.
In Week 2, the former Packer caught nine of his 12 targets for 110 yards and a score against the Baltimore Ravens. Last week, the entire Raiders offense struggled against the Carolina Panthers which resulted in his underwhelming output.
However, the 31-year-old has seen 40.9% of the team's air yards and 25.2% of the team's total targets. In addition, he has been targeted on 22.3% of his routes and has averaged 1.73 yards on each route which are both well above the average marks.
Davante Adams’ toenail drag catch against the #Ravens had a 6.1% completion probability 😳
The most improbable catch so far this season.

Fantasy managers should feel comfortable putting Adams in their lineup as he should see a heavy dose of targets his way this weekend and should be viewed as a high-floor WR2.
