Fantasy football: Top 10 waiver wire wide receivers
5. Rueben Randle-New York Giants (32.1%)
Randle picked the wrong time to finally have his breakout week. He posted an impressive seven-catch, 116-yard performance on Thursday night, but he could be about to lose playing time as Victor Cruz is expected to return this week.
Randle caught all seven of his targets this week in one of his best performances of his career, but there may not be enough targets for him, Cruz, and Odell Beckham Jr. going forward. Randle has shown flashes, but consistency is still something he needs to work on before he can be a regular part of your lineup.
He can be used as a one-week fill-in or a flier play, though, as he reminded us last week. While he started the season quietly, don’t forget that last year he finished with back-t0-back games with over 125 yards receiving. He can produce solid games, but I wouldn’t start him yet if you can help it especially with Cruz returning. However, Randle is worth adding at this point to see how his role plays out in Eli’s pass-heavy offense.
