BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 64% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: This is one of the biggest exceptions I have ever made when writing WW columns. Just look at Donovan Peoples-Jones' rostership in Yahoo and you'll understand. Yes, DPJ is available in fewer than 40% of leagues, but with the playoffs already here and DPJ performing to impressive levels, you should check your league's WW pool ASAP and smash that "Add" button if you can still find DPJ sitting in there.
DPJ has put up numbers all season, but somehow fantasy GMs still don't fully trust him. Not even with a top-five QB tossing him the rock these days after the comeback of Deshaun Watson a few weeks ago.
DPJ is doing it in all possible ways: three weeks ago, he went 3-for-3 on receptions for 44 yards (13.4 PPR). He raised the bar on huge volume, catching 8-of-12 targets for 114 yards in Week 14 (19.4 PPR). Now, he's coming off a rare Saturday Night Football affair with Baltimore in which he caught all four targets for 31 yards and a touchdown (13.1 PPR).
That's Peoples-Jones for you: a weekly lock for 11-to-13 PPR points with an upside for an explosion into high-teens/low-twenties fantasy points. In fact, that's the only thing lacking in DPJ's season. It's not out of the realm of possibilities to find him putting up some 8+ reception, 100+ yard, one TD game ROS.
Don't lose a second and go grab some shares before it's too late which, at this point, surely is starting to be the case with the fantasy postseason already here.
