Start of the week: Jarvis Landry vs New York Jets |
It took long enough, but the real Jarvis Landry has finally emerged. Since week 12, Landry has no less than 6 catches or 52 yard, and is averaging 9.5 targets per game. He has finished with 19.1 points or more (and a TD) three times in his last four games. So, you have to be excited about him going against a Jets team that has surrendered the fourth-most receptions, and fifth-most TD catches to WRs this year. Expect Landry’s hot streak to carry over into the fantasy championship, and for him to beat his ESPN projection of 14.8 points.
Others to consider: Mike Evans (TB) - @DET, Amari Cooper (DAL) - PHI, Tee Higgins (CIN) - @HOU

Sit of the Week: Chase Claypool Vs Indianapolis Colts |
Since finishing with double-digit PPR points in seven of eight games from weeks 5-12, Claypool's production has fallen off a cliff. He hasn’t topped 54 yards in over a month, and has finished with less than 8.0 points in each of his last three games. If you haven’t figured it out by now, it’s probably safe to bench him. Hell, it’s probably safe to drop him depending on how deep your league is. It definitely doesn’t help that this week, he’ll be taking on a Colts defense allowing the fifth-least receptions and tenth-least fantasy points to WR's this season. Claypool’s ESPN projection of 12.5 points is going to be a long shot to meet, let alone beat, this week.
Others to consider: Robby Anderson (CAR) - @WAS, TY Hilton (IND) - @PIT, DJ Chark (JAX) - CHI
