Fantasy football-top waiver wire week 14 pickups

Marvin Jones-WR-Cincannati Benglas (47.6%)

Jones is a solid, reliable option although he sometimes is inconsistent from week to week depending on how the Bengals focus their passing attack.  He is solidly entrenched across the field from A.J. Green, and definitely has Andy Dalton’s trust in the red zone.

Jones had 55 yards on five catches hauling in all five passes thrown his way against the Browns.  He found the end zone for the first time since week 6 giving him four touchdowns on the year.

Jones has at least five targets in each of his last eight games, and he could be in store for even more work especially in the red zone if Tyler Eifert misses more time with a neck injury.  Eifert should be back before long, but there’s no need to risk his health for the Bengals who are in control of their destiny in the AFC North.

This week, Jones takes on the Steelers who shut him down in week eight with only two catches for 12 yards.  He’s risky to play this week, but with Eifert out there is enough upside to make him a WR3 in most formats.
