Breshad Perriman-Baltimore Ravens (23.6%)

Another #1 pick who is expected to help his team this season is Breshad Perriman who the Ravens selected with the #26 pick overall.  Unfortunately for the Ravens, Perriman injured his knee in preseason and has yet to play a snap in the first three weeks of the season.

Perriman had returned to practice and looked like he was on track to return week 4, but he suffered a setback and missing practice Monday and Tuesday of this week.  Perriman is still a ways away, but the Ravens badly need playmakers so when he’s healthy expect him to be very involved in the Baltimore passing game.

Perriman is still just a stash at this point, but he’s a sleeper that could pay off later in the season.  Knowing your league is key with situations like this since in many leagues you can watch and monitor his progress and add him closer to his return. However, in deep leagues you may need to stash him early or use your IR spot to keep him for when he gets the chance to make a rookie splash later this season.
