BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 44% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: With six weeks already in the books... I guess it's time to start believing in Christian Kirk as a bonafide WR2 this season? I mean, Kirk is a 10-FPPG career scorer, which means he's a top-36 WR at best, but he's ramped up his efforts as part of the Unstoppable Cards in 2021 and that doesn't seem to be about to change any time soon, right? Right? And if that's the case, then that below-50% rostership is ridiculous.
Kirk has a very big dud this season: Week 4 when he scored all of 1.5 PPR points on a 1-1-5 performance while playing the second-most snaps (56) and logging the second-highest snap share (72%) of his season through Week 6. That's so crazy but so true. Other than that blemish, though, Kirk has played to 9.5+ PPR points in each of the other five games this year with an average outcome of 15.9 PPR points in those matches. He's actually coming off his second-best game of the year after his astonishing, then-unbelievable debut for 24.0 FP.
Christian Kirk's just put up an 8-5-75-1 line in Week 6 scoring a touchdown for the first time since the two he hauled in back in Week 1. The playing time had stayed constant prior to W6 (around 60% snap share) but it sky-rocketed last Sunday to a season-high 85% on 64 individual snaps played. Kirk has gotten 4+ targets in five of six games, 5+ in four of those, and is catching at least 3 passes per outing this season. Not sure which type of league you're part of, but it's not that you can find WR2 available for free with a third of the season in the books already, folks, so do your homework and go get shares of Kirk.
