4. Cole Beasley, WR, Buffalo Bills

Cole Beasley probably went undrafted in your league, because not many believed he’d have a similar line to what he did in 2020: 82 catches for 967 yards and four touchdowns. While we’re still unsure after one week of how he’ll compare to that stat line this season, he’s picking up where he left off.

Beasley opened the season playing the same security blanket role he played last year for the Bills and Josh Allen, catching 8-of-13 targets for 67 yards. The 13 targets were just shy of the team-leading 14 that Stefon Diggs had.

It’s clear that Beasley is still heavily involved in this Bills’ passing attack, even with the signing of Emmanuel Sanders. He’s a solid pickup, especially in PPR leagues where catches are king.
