Paul Richardson (WR, WSH) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Prior to Week 3, Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson had hauled in at least four catches in his first two games of the season, but the big play had eluded him. In Week 3, the volume wasn’t there, but one catch for 46 yards and a touchdown was. With the way the Redskins receivers look right now, Richardson could end up being the best of the bunch.

So far Jamison Crowder and Josh Doctson have done nothing to solidify a place atop the target totem pole, but Richardson’s big play ability might be all he needs to climb up there. Richardson is going to be streaky at times, but if he can become the WR1 in Washington, he will hold enough value to find a place on your roster. Alex Smith was able to support big play maker Tyreek Hill the last two seasons, and even though Hill is better than Richardson and this isn’t a comparison, he should be able to get Richardson the ball as well.
