Week 10 Wide Receiver Rankings Analysis
A.J. Green is still elite. Remember that! I've seen some trades involving him that have stunned me. One of the five most talented receivers in the game. Even against Joe Haden Thursday night I expect a pretty great game. Likewise with Dez Bryant. Even if Brandon Weeden were to start (looks like Romo will be good to go) this is a very easy matchup that Dez should thrive in.
Brandon Marshall is having a disappointing season but that changes this week. The Bears will look to put their problems behind them Sunday night against the Packers. Marshall is too good to not improve. I really like Alshon Jeffery too but if I had to pick one it's Marshall.
Jeremy Maclin will be fine with Mark Sanchez. I think he takes a small hit because I don't see Sanchez targeting him 50 yards downfield as Foles did for touchdowns several times this season but other than that he is still a WR1.
ROS Calvin Johnson is probably a top 5ish WR but I want to see him at full health before he is in that range on my rankings. Still, he is a must start for any owner. How will that affect Golden Tate? It brings him down for certain. He was averaging over 12 targets a game over the past three. That will likely come down to the 7-8 range but that is plenty for him to be a solid WR2.
IF Tony Romo starts, I really like Terrance Williams this week (Currently the highest ranker on him in fact). If he can't go I'd take him out of your lineups, Weeden just isn't good enough to make him relevant. Another WR I am worried about because of a QB switch is Vincent Jackson. He's been pretty good with Mike Glennon and was awful in 2+ games with McCown. This week's matchup is so good that he is still very startable but I'm concerned. Vjax owners should really hope McCown gives them a reason to be optimistic.
Despite just coming over to the Jets, Harvin has been a huge target hog which makes him pretty valuable. There is no reason that should change this week and gives him a PPR boost. I'm apparently still refusing to give up on Michael Floyd but he is once again my preferred Arizona receiver. He is outside my top-25 which is me acknowledging the lack of predictability for Arizona receivers, but Floyd is still the most talented at this point.
A couple sleepers I'd like to touch on. Taylor Gabriel may only be 5'7" but he has impressed as an undrafted rookie. Andrew Hawkins hasn't practiced all week. If he is out Thursday night Gabriel has a great chance to put up WR2 numbers. My other sleeper is even further off the radar but fellow undrafted rookie Corey Washington scored a touchdown in garbage time last week. The odds of Giants garbage time vs the Seahawks? About 90%. I have to imagine Preston Parker's awful game means Washington could very well be the WR3 this week.
Good luck in Week 10 RotoBallers!
