BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Upside WR2
ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (ankle) likely had a down game in Week 6 due to an ankle injury that he picked up, but his efficiency has been ridiculous, and he's produced big games even without massive target volume. The scheme of Packers head coach Matt LaFleur's offense limits his upside a bit.
While he may never see 10+ targets due to quarterback Jordan Love's propensity to spread the ball around, he has produced plenty of big plays to make up for it. He also has rushing upside. Receivers who have rushing upside provide a nice floor (when healthy) that boosts their production.

He's also rushed for quite a few touchdowns, which raises his ceiling even further. He should be started every week simply for his big play potential. He has ridiculous speed and a lot of other excellent traits that allow him to smash at the receiver position.
He shouldn't be left on benches, no matter the matchup, though fantasy managers should monitor his health to make sure he's not in danger of being held out of his next game.

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