BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas is coming off the best game of his season and should be viewed as a WR3 in all formats.
Last weekend, with rookie Drake Maye at the helm, Douglas tallied a season-high 92 yards off six receptions (nine targets) and found the end zone. During Weeks 3 through 5, Douglas averaged just 47.0 yards per game.
I don't think this is exactly what the Patriots want in terms of feet/technique?
But it's exactly what they want in terms of results: Drake Maye puts the ball on the money despite a blitz. Demario Douglas beats his man.

The 23-year-old is shaping up to be Maye's go-to target in the slot which should give him a solid floor on a weekly basis in PPR formats.
This weekend, Douglas will have a very favorable matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars have allowed the 31st-most points to opposing wideouts which should give Douglas some solid upside along with his safe floor.
