Bruce Ellington (WR, DET) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team PPR Leagues

OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions wide receiver Bruce Ellington is a guy for all of you PPR owners that could use a flex play during the end of season run. The Lions are not a very good football team despite some impressive wins on the season and based on the schedule they have the rest of the year, I see plenty of negative game script opportunities ahead for Bruce Ellington and the Lions offense.

Ellington hasn’t been spectacular, but he has six catches in every game with the Lions so far and plays an important role in the slot, which was vacated due to the trade of Golden Tate. Ellington could offer a safe, low, double-digit point total each week in case you need a last-second emergency play and should make it through waivers unclaimed this week. In the playoffs, I would rather play it safe then start taking risks.
