Fantasy Football Trade Advice: Wide Receivers
Players to Buy
Nico Collins remains the Texans WR1 and a buy-low target after a quiet game. Just 5 targets, 3 catches, and 25 yards but led all HOU WRs in snap share (84%). Commanded an 18.5% target share and fell short of scoring on his lone red-zone target. Favorable schedule coming up.
Buy low on Calvin Ridley. Saw a team-high 8 targets (28% target share) in Week 1, but the Broncos’ strong pass defense shut him down. Expect a bounce back in Week 2.
Pickens opened up Week 1 with a total dud, but there’s reason to believe there’s more to come with the new Cowboys WR. It was his first game with Dak Prescott (who looked great) and ran a route on 90% of the dropbacks. Had he caught a pass that he had not been interfered with, his game log (3-30 on 4 targets) might have looked a lot different.
SLICK RICK. The 49ers’ second-year WR picked up right where he left off in 2024. He emerged as SF’s No.1 WR in Week 1, hauling in 4 catches for 108 yards on 7 targets (20% target share and 140 iar yards on 4 deep targets). He also fell short of scoring on 2 end-zone targets. With George Kittle and Jauan Jennings dealing with injuries, Pearsall’s second-year breakout looks like it cemented in stone.
Keon Coleman didn’t wait long to break out in Year 2. After a slow 1st half, Coleman erupted for 11 targets (team-high 24% target share), 8 receptions, 112 yards and 1 TD. He played 88% snaps and ran routes on 83% of dropbacks, operating as Buffalo’s No. 1 WR. He led the team in air yards (144, 33% share) and red-zone targets (2).
Doubs led the Packers WRs in routes runs, air yards and receiving yards in Week 1. He also went 0-2 on his targets in the red zone. If he maintains his role atop the Packers’ WR depth chart in terms of usage, Doubs might be the Pack’s most consistent WR option.

Deebo Samuel operated as the Commanders’ slot hammer in Kliff Kingsbury’s debut: He finished Week 1 with 10 targets, 7 receptions and 77 yards, plus 1 rush for 19 yards and a TD.
78% routes and 76% slot rate in an offensive game plan built around him early.
Deebo had a monster Week 1, but he has a long injury history, making him a prime Sell-High candidate, especially as Terry McLaurin gets fully back up to speed off his long training camp holdout.
Mims operated as the WR3 for the Broncos behind Troy Franklin in Week 1. Alas, the full-time preseason usage did not carry over, and that makes Mims a no-go for fantasy purposes unless something else changes. Just 3 targets going 3-for-12 with only 53% snaps and 50% route participation. Firmly the WR3 right now; the role didn’t expand from preseason.
