6. Keenan Allen-WR-San Diego Chargers (1.2%)

This rookie, third-round pick out of Cal has grown into big part of the Bolts’ passing game the last few weeks during the Philip Rivers resurgence. Allen had a big game against the Raiders finishing with 115 yards and a score, but he could have been even better with a second TD called back and another opportunity that Rivers mis-threw into an interceptions.

Allen had 80 yards on five catches a week ago against the Cowboys which is why I think he’ll be better going forward than teammate Vincent Brown who also makes a good pickup. If Rives continues his surge, Allen will continue to be a solid play throughout the upcoming bye week wave.

The Chargers face the emerging Colts defense on Monday Night, so proceed with caution if you’re planning on starting him this week. He’s a low-end flex play, but someone to try and fit on your roster going forward if possible.
