Other Receiving Votes

Here are a few more names you want to consider when you go through your fantasy football waiver wire.

San Francisco 49ers WR Jeremy Kerley (9% Owned) – He might not be the best WR in the league but he finds himself in one of the best situations. Chip Kelly’s offense runs a ton of plays and it highlights the slot WR. Over the last two weeks Kerley is averaging seven receptions, 95 yards and a touchdown.

Tennessee Titans QB Marcus Mariota (47% Owned) – He easily had his best game of the season last week with four total touchdowns and no turnovers. This week he gets another favorable matchup against the Cleveland Browns. He could make for a good streaming option in Week 6.

Dallas Cowboys WR Cole Beasley (40% Owned) – Beasley and quarterback Dak Prescott continue to show good chemistry and he’s a WR3 in PPR leagues.

Baltimore Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon (37% Owned) – The rookie made his debut last week and should see more snaps and opportunities as the season progresses.

New England Patriots WR Chris Hogan (25% Owned) – He had 114 receiving yards in Tom Brady‘s first game back. This could be a sign of things to come this season.

Pittsburgh Steelers TE Jesse James (24% Owned) – He now has a touchdown in three out of the last four games and is a starting tight end in one of the best offenses in the NFL.

New York Giants RB Bobby Rainey (5% Owned) – Rainey has at least six receptions and 40+ receiving yards in back-to-back games. He is a nice addition for owners in PPR leagues.

Buffalo Bills TE Charles Clay (12% Owned) – He now has five receptions in back-to-back weeks. He could be worth a look as a streaming option with a good matchup against the 49ers in Week 6.

San Diego Chargers TE Hunter Henry (28% Owned) – Even though Antonio Gates returned last week, Henry still managed to catch a touchdown pass and set a career high in receiving yards (74).
