BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 14% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The case for adding Demarcus Robinson is predicated on volume and opportunities, not production. I know that is not what you might want to hear this late in the season and with the fantasy stakes higher than ever as we get into the postseason, but remember that opportunity trumps everything in fantasy football.
Robinson has seen at least four targets in eight consecutive games while getting an even healthier 6+ looks in the last three weeks. His two fumbles last Saturday at Cleveland brought his final PPR tally down a bit (5.9), but he was coming off scoring 11.1 and 10.2 FP in the prior two games.
The Ravens couldn't count on QB1 Lamar Jackson for the second week in a row (third if you consider he only played 10 snaps back in Week 13), but that hasn't really killed Robinson's upside. When Jackson is back, considering what DR is doing already without him, outcomes should improve.
Robinson had scored double-digit fantasy points twice with Lamar at the helm (12.4 PPR in Week 8 and 21.8 in Week 11) and has already scored one touchdown this season (back in Week 2).
This is surely not the safest addition for those in shallow leagues, but Robinson is a must-roster player in all deeper leagues with WR3/Flex appeal for the playoffs in such leagues.
