Eddie Royal (WR, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues

OWNED IN: 24% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Brian Hoyer has certainly made one WR look very good in this offense, and unfortunately for many that receiver isn’t Alshon Jeffery. Eddie Royal had a dominant showing in Week 4, catching all seven of his targets for 111 yards and a TD in the Bears win over the Lions. Royal is fully healthy after dealing with injuries throughout 2015, and has been operating as the slot man in this offense. On top of being an excellent slot man, he has also been the best WR on the team in red zone catch percentage at 75% (3-of-4). He seems to have found himself in a good spot with QB Brian Hoyer.

Kevin White left Sunday’s game in the third quarter after suffering and ankle injury. He received an MRI on Monday after being in “quite a bit of pain” according to ESPN’s Jeff Dickerson. If he misses any time, there will be even more targets to go around for the other Bears receivers. Royal should be relatively consistent all season, but big games like this will only happen once in a while. Royal will be a great pickup especially in PPR leagues, caching mostly short-to-intermediate passes.
