BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: At some point, Aaron Rodgers will figure it out and start playing better, right? Maybe, maybe not. Newly signed New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams' first game with his new team and his old quarterback resulted in just three catches for 30 yards in a blowout loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 7.
The effort right here from Davante Adams to save the pick 6 touchdown is why every player in the NFL respects him. Never quit on a play.

It's cool to see a receiver making this type of effort, but those aren't the plays you want your fantasy "stars" to make. The Jets are 2-5, and their offense is in large part to blame. It's been anemic. They found somewhat of a stride when they suddenly remembered they should make RB Breece Hall the focal point of the O.
Breece Hall is insane 🤯

We know their offense will suck if they don't throw it pretty often to Hall. So it's a good thing they're doing that. It should be considered that Adams may have regressed significantly as well. He's 31 years old and has over a decade of taking NFL hits. Being on the wrong side of 30 is not great for receivers.
He's still worth starting in PPR, but the reunion party could be over before it even started. Father time is undefeated. Things should get better for him in the coming games anyway.

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Jauan Jennings, Courtland Sutton, Michael Pittman Jr.
The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
