BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 2% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Maybe I'm too high on Kendrick Bourne here. But if I'm in a league with 14 or 16 teams and I need to grab a wide receiver off the wire, I want to go with someone with a high ceiling, even if there's a lot of risk with his low floor. For me, Kendrick Bourne fits that.
#Patriots Kendrick Bourne's usage really stood out among Patriots pass catchers in week 1
- 91% Snap%
- 25.6% of the overall target share

JuJu Smith-Schuster just didn't look good in his Patriots debut. DeVante Parker (knee) is hurt. Bourne's found himself being the default top receiver for the team and he responded with a big game. Targeted a team-high 11 times, Bourne finished with six catches for 64 yards and two touchdowns. The fact that this is his seventh NFL season and this was the most he's ever been targeted in a game is worrisome, but later-career breakouts aren't impossible.
