Midseason Look at the Advanced Metrics: WR Edition

Hello, and welcome to another great DFF article. In this piece, I will be looking at a large majority of the WRs in the NFL and dissecting their performances so far this season. I will be looking at all WRs who have played 200 or more snaps this season. I used PlayerProfiler.com’s Data Analysis package to pull stats like Target Share, Target Rate, and Yards per Route Run for these players. Then, I sorted them from worst to best, and I will highlight anything that I thought was interesting. Hopefully, we can use this to identify buys and sells, as well as fraudulent producers, which players are really good, and which are really bad. Let’s dive right into the numbers.

The Wire: Week 10

Noah Brown appeared to be a fringe NFL wide receiver at best through the first five years of his career. It wasn’t until last season in Dallas that he showed any real signs of life. After the departure of veteran star Amari Cooper, the WR2 spot was wide open for the taking, and Brown surprised many by filling that hole. He finished the 2022 season with a respectable 43 receptions, 555 yards, and three touchdowns, all career highs.

Ja’Tavion Sanders: Better than Bowers?

There’s no denying Brock Bowers is a generational college talent. He’s arguably the best tight end in college football history, and before the injury this season, he was pacing to break the career receiving yards record for Division 1 tight ends…in just three seasons. Bowers unfortunately suffered an injury in their victory over Vanderbilt on 10/14, requiring surgery to repair a broken ankle. This type of injury typically takes four to six weeks to recover from, so Bower will likely miss at least another week or two.

DFS with Doug Week 9

Every week, I tell you guys about how the slates can’t possibly get any more gross, and every week it is worse. We have a few more teams on bye and some premium offenses on island games or at 7:30 AM MT, forcing me to set an early alarm to watch the Dolphins and Chiefs. We also have an epidemic of backup quarterbacks playing this week, making things extremely gross. Some of the guys who could be starting at quarterback this week include Clayton Tune, Tyson Bagent, Jaren Hall, Taylor Hienicke, Brett Rypien, Zach Wilson, Gardener Minshew, and Aiden O’Connell. On a 10-game slate like this one, that’s 40% of our quarterbacks, which is tough to stomach.

Rookie Roundup: Week 8

Hello DFF members, I am Chris, and I am doing a rookie roundup series for the 2023 season. My primary space in fantasy centers around analytics, rookie models, and early career models, so this is something I should be able to make beneficial content out of. This will be released every two weeks, and I will keep you updated on how these rookies have been performing and how their values should be changing. I will provide my take on their current value. This should be used as a tool when buying or selling as what I think their “fair value” is. I would be trying to make moves for these players where you buy for less and sell for more, but if you can get the price I list, I do think it is still in your favor. We have a lot to talk about; let’s get right into it.

The Wire: Week 9

Welcome back to another weekly edition of “The Wire”. In this series, I review three players each week that you should target on the waiver wire for your Dynasty teams. To keep the information in this series consistent, I will only refer to players with an ownership percentage of less than 50%, according to Sleeper Dynasty leagues. I’ll do my best to provide you with players that have a more long-term upside rather than a one-week ceiling, seeing that this is a Dynasty series and not Redraft. So, sit back, relax, and let me find you some diamonds in the rough!

Horton

Tory Horton Devy Profile

Looking for the Puka Nacua of the 2024 draft class? More than likely, that player doesn’t exist, as Nacua is putting up numbers we’ve never seen from a rookie, let alone a Day 3 draft pick. But, if you’re looking for a projected late-round rookie pick with massive upside, look no further than Colorado State WR Tory Horton. Not many Devy players are talking about him, but he’s quietly had one of the more productive collegiate careers in this 2024 class. Not playing for a Power 5 program has resulted in Horton flying under the radar. Most Devy ranking sites don’t have Tory’s name listed at all. But Horton has been a producer since his early days at Nevada, and he’s developed into arguably a top-ten WR in this class.
