Michael Crabtree (WR, OAK) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team PPR Leagues

OWNED IN: 68% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Michael Crabtree has recently emerged as a reliable fantasy option. The 28-year-old former Texas Tech standout is attempting to reinvent himself in Oakland after an erratic six-year stay across the bay with the 49ers.

He was immediately thrust into the second wideout spot on the Raiders' depth chart, behind rookie Amari Cooper. Second-year signal-caller Derek Carr is coming into his own, and has shown the ability to spread the ball around-- 13 players have at least once reception this year, tied for the most in all of football.

Crabtree only surpassed 1,000 receiving yards once -- in 2012 -- but is on pace to come awfully close to the milestone number in his first year with his new team. At this point, he should be added in just about all PPR leagues, and most standard leagues as well. If he's still available on your Week 4 waiver wire, be sure to add him to your rosters.
