WR #1: DJ Moore, Carolina Panthers ($6,300)

When talking about high-floor guys, look no further than DJ Moore, who has 53 catches on 88 targets for 677 yards and three touchdowns on the year, which checks in as the WR11 in PPR leagues. He’s been Sam Darnold’s favorite target by far, and securing high volume in our lineup will pay big dividends.

Moore and the Panthers get the Arizona Cardinals who are shaping up to be one of the stingier defenses in the league. However, we’ve seen in the past that Moore is matchup proof, and his high-volume elevates him over any bad matchup. He’s a solid option for us this week.

WR #2: Michael Pittman Jr., Indianapolis Colts ($6,300)

Michael Pittman Jr. has emerged as a legitimate fantasy football threat, and he’s worked his way up to the overall WR7 in PPR leagues. He’s currently ranked higher than guys like D.K. Metcalf, Justin Jefferson, and Chris Godwin. He’s a legit threat anytime he’s on the field.

Pittman Jr. gets a nice matchup against the Jags, who are the 26th ranked pass defense in the NFL. Pairing him with Wentz as our quarterback is a solid duo, as they will likely connect a ton in this contest. Pittman Jr. is another solid floor option for us.

WR #3: Cole Beasley, Buffalo Bills ($5,200)

Cole Beasley has been a reliable option all year for the Bills, and he’s ranked as the WR32 in PPR scoring, which is actually solid value considering he went undrafted in most leagues.

Per Joe Buscaglia of the Athletic, Beasley is functioning as the Bills’ ‘de-facto running back,’ which all but guarantees him high volume, especially since the Bills aren’t able to formulate any sort of run game.

Beasley’s 8.4 target per game average will continue this week as the Bills take on a bad Jets defense that just got torched by Indy. He’ll maintain the high-floor status of our lineup so far.
