Charles Johnson (WR, MIN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper PPR Leagues

OWNED IN: 12% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Having written about Charles Johnson once before, I would like to reinforce that he has quietly developed into Minnesota’s preferred number one target. Over the last four games, Johnson has been targeted 29 times compared to 21 for Greg Jennings and a whopping six for Cordarrelle Patterson. Johnson’s biggest game of the season came just last week against an admittedly weak secondary in the New York Jets. That being said, when you’re looking for a wide receiver in a super deep league, Johnson is certainly worth a shot. It’s rare to find a guy getting the most targets on his team when you’re scouring that low. Granted, this is a tough matchup for the Vikings as they head to Detroit to face one of the league’s best defenses.
