Should I Pickup Demarcus Robinson For Fantasy Football Week 16? Waiver Wire Outlook

Should I pickup Demarcus Robinson for fantasy football Week 16? Is Demarcus Robinson a good fantasy pick off the waiver wire? Read the fantasy football waivers outlook.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has had a few impressive fantasy performances this season and since Devin Duvernay (foot) and Rashod Bateman (foot) are out for the season, he is officially on the fantasy radar.

Baltimore clearly has a bottom-of-the-barrel passing offense, but fantasy managers will need to exhaust all options on the waiver wire to stay competitive in the fantasy football playoffs.

Is Robinson worth a waiver wire pickup heading into Week 16? Let's dive into it.

What Has Demarcus Robinson Done This Season?

Despite being in a low-volume passing offense, has seen 20 targets over the last three games, and had games of eight and nine targets earlier in the season. In total, he has 44 catches on 62 targets for 419 yards and one touchdown. According to PlayerProfiler.com, Robinson has a target rate (targets per route run) of 22.9 percent. That's good for 42nd among all qualifying wide receivers.

Needless to say, he's been far from a fantasy stud, but he's been targeted at a decent rate when he's on the field, and there's a good argument that he's the best Ravens' wide receiver remaining after a slew of injuries.

Should I Add Demarcus Robinson Off the Waiver Wire in Fantasy Football?

Although Robinson's upside could be capped by Tyler Huntley drawing another start, he's worth picking up in leagues with 14 teams or more. Again, he's the last decent receiver option for the Ravens, as the rest of the depth chart is filled by James Proche II, DeSean Jackson, and the newly claimed Sammy Watkins. In leagues that utilize a ton of flex spots, he's a solid fill-in against the awful Atlanta Falcons secondary in Week 16.

All that said, there's always risk for pass-catcher in Baltimore, as even Mark Andrews has been in a major slump in recent weeks. If Baltimore can simply run with ease against the Falcons, the passing attempts will be ultra-low for either Huntley or Lamar Jackson. Desmond Ridder and the Atlanta offense likely won't score a ton of points, so there is a real chance Baltimore won't be incentivized to pass. In deep leagues, that's a risk worth taking.
