WR Davone Bess- Miami
Percent owned (ESPN): 32.7%
A weekly fixture on this list, for some reason he’s just not getting the love. His 44 receptions rank 15th in the NFL so he’s a PPR beast. He also has 451 yards and 3 scores.
WR Nate Burleson- Detroit
Percent owned (ESPN): 26.7%
Since Stafford has returned, Burleson has 14 catches for 160 yards and a score, doing exactly what he was brought to Detroit to do, give Stafford another option opposite Megatron.
TE Brandon Pettigrew- Detroit
Percent owned (ESPN): 25.3%
No idea why he’s still fairly scarcely owned, Pettigrew has 38 catches for 362 yards and 3 scores this season and has caught touchdowns in both games since Matt Stafford has returned.
WR James Jones- Green Bay
Percent owned (ESPN): 3.9%
In Donald Driver’s absence, Jones exploded for 123 yards and a score on 8 catches. Driver could miss a few more weeks with a thigh injury that held him without a reception weeks 7-8 and had him on crutches and out for week 9.
TE Tony Moeaki- Kansas City
Percent owned (ESPN): 30.4%
Dropped pretty significantly last week for whatever reason and responded with a season and career high 63 yards on 6 catches. He has 3+ catches in every game except one this season and 30 catches for 344 yards and 2 scores overall. He’s a TE1 in deeper leagues.
WR Blair White- Indianapolis
Percent owned (ESPN): 0.6%
Anthony Gonzalez is out for the season and Austin Collie will be out at least a week, probably more, after a scary concussion against Philly. That leaves White as the Colts’ slot receiver, which makes him fantasy relevant, even as just a bench player until he breaks out. The Blair White Project caught 3 balls for 42 yards after Collie went down week 9.
WR Mohamed Massaquoi (Cleveland)
Percent owned (ESPN): 9.2%
A favorite sleeper of many in the preseason, including me, Massaquoi finally appears healthy and his quarterback is finally playing well. He caught 4 balls for 58 yards against the Patriots this week.
