4. Tajae Sharpe, Tennessee Titans

Sharpe set season-highs across the board against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 7, with seven receptions (on 10 targets) for 101 yards. Heading into Tennessee’s bye this week, he had at least 5.3 PPR fantasy points in four straight games.

Sharpe established a rapport with Marcus Mariota as a rookie in 2016, with 41 catches on 83 targets (an 18.4 percent target share). But then he missed the 2017 season with a foot injury, and that momentum went away. But over the last three games, Sharpe has gotten a 20.5 percent target share (15 of 73) with nine targets on Mariota’s 32 attempts (28.1 percent share) in Week 7.

If you’ve lost Fuller, you’re looking ahead to Week 9 anyway and the ship has sailed on any concern over Sharpe’s Week 8 bye. Mariota’s overall shortcomings are a broad concern, and the upcoming schedule is not filled with great matchups, but Sharpe is on the rise and he’s well worth an add in 12 and 14-team leagues of all scoring formats.
