BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 31% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Even after two monster games in Weeks 9 and 10 that helped Marquez Valdes-Scantling finish as a WR2 (19.3 PPR) and a WR1 (24.9) respectively, he still didn't seem to earn the benefit of the doubt from fantasy GMs as he entered W11 on just one of each three Yahoo! leagues out there. I have to admit, though, that I was also dubious of MVS recent exploits and have never trusted him that much.
That doesn't mean that his 6.5-PPR game this past Sunday against Indianapolis can be used against him. Sure, he came back to his floor on this one, but he was targeted 6 times by Aaron Rodgers even with Allen Lazard back and TE Robert Tonyan getting five targets himself. Too bad for MVS, he just couldn't make the most of his opportunities, catching only 3 of those 6 passes for 55 yards. And that overtime fumble... well, let's forget about it.
Even now that Lazard is part of the offense again, I'd say MVS has earned the respect of Rodgers and is going to be an important part of the receiving corps ROS. And hell, it is not that Green Bay has a ton of options other than Davante Parker (obviously) and Lazard (assuming he gets back to his peak level of play) around.
The next weekend matchup against Chicago doesn't look too good (the Bears rank 3rd-best against fantasy WRs), but after that the Packers face the 13th and 21st defenses against WRs, which should at least allow MVS to play to a good FLEX level, making him a WW target for needy GMs part of deeper leagues.
