BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~73
ANALYSIS: Is Christian Kirk or Evan Engram the PPR king in Jacksonville?
The tight end led the position in targets (143), receptions (114), and routes run (603) en route to a TE2 finish. He ran a route on over 97% of Jacksonville's passing plays. Touchdowns (four) held him back from the top TE spot.
But he was the TE7 through Week 12, the game before an injury ended Kirk's season. After that, Engram secured all his touchdowns and recorded double-digit receptions in three of six games. His average was 10.1 targets without Kirk versus 7.4 with the slot receiver. A similar story played out in the Jaguars' preseason game against Atlanta when Kirk did not play.

Kirk is back and healthy, alongside new receivers Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis. The outside duo replaces Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones. The target competition inside will be one to watch, especially if Kirk comes off the field during two-receiver sets. Engram is the TE8 off the board, similar to his pace last season with a healthy Kirk.

Mack Hollins (WR, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 11
BALLER MOVE: Don't Add ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's still not a good idea to use a waiver claim or even a bench spot on Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins. He caught all four of his targets for 86 yards last week, but that performance was the exception rather than the rule […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeMario Douglas once again led all Patriots wide receivers in receiving yards this past Sunday. New England has been maddeningly inconsistent with their wide receiver usage. However, the one constant has been Douglas. He looks like the team’s best pass catcher […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Legette is coming off a bit of a disappointing game Sunday against the New York Giants.
