BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 9% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Turns out high-volume Nelson Agholor is as good--if not more--than low-volume Nelson Agholor. And that's quite a relief, folks. That's because during the first five weeks of the season Agholor was one of the most ridiculously efficient receivers of the NFL racking up 185 yards on just 10 receptions on 11 targets, including a couple of touchdowns. That looked like a goddam fluky statline, but in the past five games--and on a much higher volume of targets--Agholor has been able to keep his numbers up.
Agholor has been targeted at least three times in four of the last five games, and 4+ times in three of those matches. Of those five, he's finished above 13 PPR points three times, and above 20 twice. His line in those five games sits at 14-of-27 receptions for 258 yards, a less efficient but more productive one than the one he got through the first five weeks of the season.
With 6 TDs on the year, Agholor is the wide receiver scoring touchdowns at the highest rate on a per-target basis. He's the only 6+ TD scorer of the league doing so every 6.3 targets, followed by Adam Thielen each 6.9.
The Raiders face the third- and sixth-worst defenses against fantasy WRs in the next couple of weekends, which you need to target by adding Agholor to your roster and putting him in your lineups. It might be a little risky to do that in super-shallow leagues, but for fantasy GMs in deeper formats, Agholor looks like a must-start for the next two games at least.
