Dede Westbrook Has Minimal Value Versus Steelers
6 years agoJacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook has started to solidify his spot as the clear number two within Jacksonville’s receiving corps this season. He led the team in targets in Week 10, reeling in five of the 10 throws lofted his way against the Indianapolis Colts. While Westbrook has seen decent target volume throughout recent weeks, he does struggle to convert on a high percentage of the balls thrown his way. Due to his lack of receptions per game, he is heavily reliant on a few decent chunk plays a game, leading to him having a shallow floor as he could combust in your lineup. In Week 11, he matches up against a rising Pittsburgh Steelers secondary that has improved week to week on lowering the amount of points they allow to opposing wide receivers.
