Las Vegas Raiders Fantasy Outlook: Week 13 Sit ‘Em or Start ‘Em

Wide Receivers

Henry Ruggs – Start ‘Em

We have signs of life from Henry Ruggs! The rookie speedster had a decent day for the Raiders offense as he had 3 catches for 56 yards including one huge contested catch early in the game on fourth down. Ruggs was targeted a season high five times and had a chance to make a big play in the third quarter but just couldn’t complete the catch.

The uptick in targets is a good sign for Ruggs and could mean more involvement in the offense moving forward. His catches came while the game was still a contest so take a chance on Ruggs if you need a FLEX but otherwise Agholor is a more reliable play at this point.

Bryan Edwards – Sit ‘Em

One catch for 12 yards on the day for Bryan Edwards but his snap counts are increasing. Not worth starting or keeping on your roster but as a fan it’s nice to see him more involved.

Hunter Renfrow – Start ‘Em

Hunter Renfrow was targeted a team high 9 times on Sunday and did most of his damage while the game was still in doubt so give him a look at the FLEX if you need a receiver with Tampa Bay and Carolina on bye weeks.

Nelson Agholor – Start ‘Em

Nelson Agholor had a solid game with 5 catches for 54 yards which is a good day in a PPR or half-PPR league but his low yardage total and lack of a touchdown was bad for standard leagues. He was targeted six times and clearly has the best chemistry with Carr of the outside receivers so keep him in that lineup and hope for a big day against a Jets defense giving up the fifth most points to wide receivers.
