Wide Receiver 1: Hunter Renfrow, Las Vegas Raiders ($7,000)

Hunter Renfrow has emerged as an every-week fantasy starter, who gets an even bigger bump in PPR leagues. He just had his third straight 100 plus yard receiving day in Week 15 against Kansas City, and he’s had at least seven catches in five out of his last six games. His elite volume should continue this week in a tough conference matchup with the Cleveland Browns.

Renfrow’s high floor will help pace our receiving corps this week. His volume is becoming undeniable and having a guy with guaranteed work in our lineup is a win for us.

Wide Receiver 2: Michael Pittman Jr., Indianapolis Colts ($5,600)

Michael Pittman Jr. is having a breakout season, as he’s finally emerging as the number one wideout that he’s had the potential to be since he was drafted by the Colts. He’s now up to 67 catches for 882 yards and five touchdowns on the year.

Pittman Jr. does have a tough matchup this week against the Patriots, but his potential role in what will be a fairly competitive game makes him a solid option for us.

Wide Receiver 3: DeVante Parker, Miami Dolphins ($4,300)

DeVante Parker has hardly played this year due to injury, but in the six games he’s played in, he’s had at least seven targets in all but one of them. So when he’s healthy, he’s a part of the game plan. This week, he’s returning from bye and should be feeling pretty good.

Along with Tua, Parker has a plus matchup against the New York Jets this week. With Jaylen Waddle’s rookie breakout causing him to garner more attention from opposing defenses, Parker should see plenty of looks.
