2. WR Mecole Hardman, Kansas City Chiefs

Rostered: 36.1%

On Sunday, Hardman hauled in six of his nine targets for 79 yards and a touchdown.

Hardman has now scored five touchdowns in his last three games, and it is impossible to ignore him in fantasy leagues. Is this level of production sustainable? Conventional logic tells me no, but there is a statistical case that it could be. This season, he has been targeted 10 times in the red zone, which is tied for 11th among NFL wide receivers.

Furthermore, he has been targeted six times inside the 10-yard line, which is tied for seventh among NFL wide receivers. Not to mention, he plays in the Chiefs’ offense, which is leading the league in points per game (30.4).

Notably, Hardman had nine targets on Sunday night, while Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Kadarius Toney had a combined three targets. As the number two wide receiver in a high-scoring offense, Hardman has significant fantasy value.
