Fantasy Football League-Winning Wide Receivers to Target

Chris Olave (NO)

“Chris Olave is going as WR35 and is easily the cheapest of any receiver who figures to lead their team in targets. The reason for his suppressed ADP is surely the combination of the Saints’ uncertainty at quarterback and his struggles with concussions last season. These two risk factors are baked into his current price, which is well below his floor. Olave has the potential to be a WR 1/2 and is being priced like a bottom-of-the-barrel WR3. He’s free money!”

Ricky Pearsall (SF)

“With Deebo Samuel in Washington and Brandon Aiyuk still rehabbing, the 49ers’ WR1 is up for grabs. Both Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall have excellent value, but the receiver with true league-winning upside is Pearsall. Jenning’s boom potential is undeniable, but consistency in volume leans towards Pearsall. Pearsall’s 2024 was hampered, but he broke out in the final two games with 14 receptions on 18 targets for over 200 yards and two touchdowns. 2024 was just a taste of what Pearsall has to offer.”

Jerry Jeudy (CLE)

“From Week 8 till the end of the season, Jerry Jeudy broke out. He tied Justin Jefferson as the WR8 at 15.1 half PPR points per game and delivered one of the biggest games of the season in Week 13. While Cleveland is full of quarterback questions, there is little doubt that Jeudy is entrenched as the top receiver. A WR34 price tag makes weathering those quarterback questions worthwhile, and Joe Flacco being announced as the Week 1 starter could create a value shift for Jeudy. Kevin Stefanski has consistently created fantasy value in his tenure, and Jeudy has shown a Top 10 ceiling.”
