Devin Duvernay (WR, BAL) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues

ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Coming up next: your deep-league WW-flier of the week, Devin Duvernay! Yay! See, I know what you're thinking: Antonio has lost his damn head. Not going to blame you, honestly, but bear with me for a minute. Duvernay has played between 6 and 18 snaps in each of the five games of 2020 so far. That is, to put it nicely, a putrid usage. He's been targeted in every game, though, and in the last three 2+ times every outing. Not great, not bad either.

Baltimore's receivers have topped 10 PPR points four times this season: Marquise Brown has done so in three games, and Willie Snead IV has the remaining such performance. Duvernay has a 7.9 and an 8.7 PPR-outings to his name already, which rank as the seventh- and eighth-best fantasy performances among all Ravens receivers. That is Duvernay's upside and prime appeal: Baltimore has virtually no receiving weapons other than TE Mark Andrews and Marquise Brown.

Duvernay's playing time is the lowest among Baltimore's skill-position players, but he also is averaging the higher PPR-per-snap points of all of them at 0.39 (J.K. Dobbins, Mark Ingram II, and Andrews trail him).

It is hard to envision a clear uptick in usage, and the Ravens rush the ball more times than they pass it, but if you're in a deep league and desperate for help at the WR position, Duvernay looks like a potentially good player that might be trusted more on offense as we get deeper into the season. Add him only in super-deep leagues, but consider him a good "what-the-heck" flier.
