Marquez Valdes-Scantling

With Randall Cobb out of the lineup last week, Valdes-Scantling moved back into his near full-time slot role, which is great for his projection as slot targets are worth more than perimeter targets. That's precisely the case against the Seahawks, as they have former undrafted free agent Justin Coleman manning the slot. If there's one area of the field where the Seahawks have struggled, it's covering slot receivers, as Emmanuel Sanders tagged them for 10/135/1, Cooper Kupp for 6/90/1, and Keenan Allen for 6/124/0. Those account for three of the four top four performances allowed by the Seahawks this season. If you own Valdes-Scantling, you probably want to plug him in as a WR3 this week, especially if Cobb is out again.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling snags six receptions in Week 10

Marquez Valdes-Scantling had six catches for 44 yards on seven targets during the Packers 31-12 win over the Dolphins in Week 10.

Fantasy Impact

Valdes-Scantling was primarily targeted on short routes this week which limited his upside finishing with just 7.3 yards per reception. With Geronimo Allison out for the season and Randall Cobb missing the game with a hamstring, Valdes-Scantling has moved in the number two role in the passing game making him a fantasy option every week.
