ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. started to come alive in the last four weeks before the bye, posting at least 10 PPR points in three of the four games. The 31-year-old should have a consistent role in the Ravens' offense to close the season out.

The Ravens were on bye in Week 13, but before that, Beckham had back-to-back-to-back good games. He had seven targets, five receptions, 56 yards, and a touchdown in Week 9 en route to 12.1 half-PPR points. In Week 10, he had just two targets and one reception, but it was a 40-yard touchdown catch. He finished with 10.5 half-PPR points. OBJ had seven targets, four receptions, and 116 yards in Week 11. He finished with 13.6 half-PPR points. In Week 12, he had five targets. He caught three of them for 34 yards, finishing with 4.9 half-PPR points.

Zay Flowers is going to continue to operate as the No. 1 option in Baltimore's passing game with Mark Andrews lost for the season. Who the No. 2 is on any given week will be anyone's best guess. However, Beckham has been the most productive player of this group of role players. Isaiah Likely should be expected to somewhat operate in the role Andrews had, but he shouldn't be expected to handle the same volume with the same efficiency.

In that regard, there could be additional volume up for grabs. Based on how these secondary options between Beckham, Nelson Agholor, and Rashod Bateman have performed this season, OBJ has been the best out of the bunch. If I were betting on one of these three players, it'd be him. It should be noted Bateman's snap share has continued to grow and he's now playing considerably more than OBJ. Fantasy managers should be adding OBJ and Bateman, stashing them on their bench, and hoping they separate from the other and settle into a more regular role.
