4. Best fantasy football pickups for Week 15: WR Treylon Burks, Tennessee Titans
Rostered: 47.5%
Burks missed Sunday’s game due to a concussion. Prior to the injury, he was building some real momentum. In Week 11, he had a breakout game with seven receptions for 111 yards against the Green Bay Packers. In Week 12, he put together a solid performance with four receptions for 70 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals. In Week 13, he got off to a strong start by scoring a 25-yard touchdown in the first quarter. Unfortunately, he also suffered the concussion on the same play. During that three-game stretch, he was 21st among wide receivers in fantasy points, despite missing the majority of the third game.
Burks projects to be the number one receiver in Tennessee’s offense. From Week 10 to Week 12, he led the Titans in receptions (14), receiving yards (205), and targets (20). The first-round pick should resume that role, when he returns to the lineup. He is a high-upside FLEX option.
