BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (Prioritize in PPR)
OWNED IN: 29% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: McKissic captured a 19.2% share last season, led all backs in targets (110/6.9 per game), and was second in both receptions (80/5.8 per game) and receiving yards (589/36.8 per game). But Antonio Gibson’s ADP surged during draft season, which was partially a byproduct of his promising numbers as a rusher (795 yards/56.8 per game). But it was also fueled by anticipation of an increase in his 2020 target share (8.9%).
Gibson accumulated 20 carries and five targets during Washington’s season opener, while McKissic was limited to just one attempt and one target. Things changed in Week 2 with quarterback Taylor Heinicke replacing the injured Ryan Fitzpatrick. McKissic confiscated nine touches, collected five of six targets, and assembled 93 totals yards - including a 56-yard reception. Gibson also carried 13 times but was limited to just two targets. McKissic’s touch total does not represent a blueprint toward future usage as his involvement will be game-script dependent. But there is justification for adding McKissic if you're in a PPR league as he has repeatedly shown his great receiving ability. Anyone with Gibson on their roster can also secure McKissic, as he provides an insurance policy if Gibson is unavailable during the season.
