BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR29
ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is the WR14 for the year, averaging 11.2 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. However, his fantasy ranking is inflated by his Week 9 performance against the Los Angeles Rams. The second-year wide receiver had seven receptions on 13 targets for 180 receiving yards, two touchdowns, and 33.5 fantasy points in the loss.

However, DK Metcalf didn’t play in that game because of a knee injury. The star wide receiver will play against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Therefore, Smith-Njigba’s fantasy value for Week 11 takes a significant hit.
Furthermore, the second-year pro has an unfriendly fantasy matchup. The 49ers have held wide receivers to 24.5 fantasy points per game, the 11th-fewest in the NFL. Furthermore, they have surrendered 17.2 or fewer fantasy points to wide receivers in four of their past six contests.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
