Michael Gallup Week 7 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Tue, Oct 20th 2020, 10:04am EDT

He's falling further and further behind Cooper and Lamb, as his 34 targets through six weeks pales in comparison (Cooper 65, Lamb 50). He's playing the field-stretcher, as evidenced by his 16.8-yard average depth of target which ranks fourth in the NFL, though he did see three end zone targets in last week's loss. Now on to play a Washington defense that's allowed the fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers. The crazy part is that they've allowed the ninth-most pass plays of 20-plus yards this year. They've allowed just a 62.2 percent catch-rate to receivers, but when they do allow a catch, it goes for 13.92 yards, which is the ninth-highest mark in the league. Still, he'll see the most of Kendall Fuller in coverage, who happens to be playing great football. He's allowed just 3-of-11 passing for 56 yards in his coverage while intercepting four passes, including at least one in each of the last three games. The touchdown catch that Darius Slayton had last week was on Fuller's side of the field, but oddly enough, they had him playing free safety on that play. Gallup is someone who's turning into a big-play-or-bust WR4 option.
