BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Rashod Bateman is a solid pick-up in fantasy football leagues, especially for managers looking to add a high-upside receiver with big-play potential.
Despite flying under the radar, Bateman has quietly scored double-digit fantasy points in four of his last six games in PPR formats, showing a level of consistency that may surprise many.
As a deep ball threat, Bateman’s ability to stretch the field provides both his team and fantasy managers with explosive potential.
This downfield role can lead to game-changing plays, making him a strong candidate for rosters needing a bit more volatility or upside at the wide receiver position.
However, Bateman is best viewed as a boom-or-bust option, as his value often hinges on his ability to connect on deep targets.
While this style of play can result in occasional lower-output games, Bateman’s upside in favorable matchups makes him a worthy flex play or low-end WR3 with room for more if he continues his recent consistency. His big-play capabilities could pay off, especially in weeks when his team leans on the passing game or faces weaker pass defenses.
For fantasy managers in need of a wide receiver who can swing matchups with one or two deep catches, Bateman presents an appealing waiver wire add.
Ravens WR Rashod Bateman is currently on pace for 897 yards this season.
