NFL DFS – Wide Receivers

Jakobi Meyers – NE WR

Judging from the first three weeks of preseason, it might be time to fit Meyers for a gold jacket. He has been so impressive that it wouldn’t be be a surprise to see him play meaningful snaps in the regular season. New England is a situation to monitor though, because if veterans such as Josh Gordon and Julian Edelman are held out, Meyers should get another chance to shine. If you really wanted to make an argument for fading him, a great leverage play could be Gunner Olszewski.

Terry McLaurin – WAS WR

A tailbone injury limited McLaurin to only one snap through the first two weeks of preseason, but the training camp standout was finally able to get onto the field for a few snaps last week. Despite being a lock to make the team, the Redskins could give him significant playing time to try and get him up to speed before the regular season. He’s nowhere close to a safe play, but maybe this is the week where the Ohio St. connection finally explodes between Haskins and McLaurin.

Carlton Agudosi – PHI WR

There aren’t a ton of wide receivers who stand 6’6″ and weigh 220 lbs. Agudosi is still trying to prove to the Eagles that he’s deserving of a roster spot, and he should be on the field for most of the game on Thursday night. Anytime Philadelphia gets anywhere near the end zone, you have to think the big bodied receiver will have the attention of the quarterback.
