Davante Adams Week 13 Outlook - Raiders at Jets

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 3rd 2020, 10:42am EST

After Tyreek Hill's monster performance, Adams is a distant second in points on the season, though he's still averaging the most fantasy points per game. Adams hasn't finished a game with fewer than 18.1 PPR points since way back in Week 6, highlighting his dominance. Has he met his match? The Eagles have allowed a league-low five wide receivers hit 14.5-plus PPR points against them this year, which is the number it required to finish as a top-24 wide receiver in 2019. Some will likely scoff at that considering D.K. Metcalf just torched them for 10/177/0 on Monday night football, so why wouldn't Adams? I'm not saying he won't, but rather it's been a tough matchup for many, similar to the one he had last week against the Bears where he finished with a solid 6/61/1, but it wasn't the monster WR1 performance we've come to expect. Here's the part where you need to stop worrying about Adams. When you factor in the level of competition the Eagles have played, wide receivers are averaging the same number of points against them that they've averaged all year, which makes them the 15th-best matchup. It's the definition of an average matchup. Adams averages 25.4 PPR points per game, so... Plug him in as a WR1 and reap the rewards. Adams played against this scheme last year, and though Darius Slay wasn't on the team, Adams torched them for 10/180/0 despite needing to leave that game early with an injury.
