BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The Cleveland Browns offense was a disaster in Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys. Quarterback Deshaun Watson barely looks like an NFL-level QB at this point, something that severely limits the upside of this offense.
However, new Browns receiver Jerry Jeudy managed eight targets, which is enough to have him in consideration when looking at waiver wire adds in 14-team leagues. You'd obviously like to see more than three catches for 25 yards, but he did find the end zone, salvaging the day from a fantasy perspective.

He also had the advantage over Elijah Moore, his biggest competition for the No. 2 receiver role. He had eight targets to Moore's six, with a 25-9 advantage in receiving yards. Jeudy played fewer snaps than Moore, but still outproduced him. Look for Jeudy's role in this offense to continue growing.
