Las Vegas Raiders fantasy outlook: Week 16 Sit ‘Em or Start ‘Em

Wide Receivers

Henry Ruggs – Sit ‘Em

Henry Ruggs has been activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list after missing the Week 15 tilt with the Chargers, but if you dropped him, or just put him on your bench, we would suggest keeping him there. The rookie receiver has only shown flashes in this difficult season and we can’t expect him to deliver against a tough Dolphins secondary that has shut down opposing receivers all year long.

Bryan Edwards – Sit ‘Em

Bryan Edwards is slipping down the depth chart in Las Vegas as the Raiders chose to start Zay Jones last week against the Chargers over him with Ruggs unavailable. Edwards came into the season with lots of promise, but could not deliver due to injury, so maybe next year will be Edward’s chance to really shine.

Hunter Renfrow – Sit ‘Em

Hunter Renfrow was brutally knocked out on a punt return against LA in a play that was inexplicably not ruled a penalty and missed most of the game. He remains on the injury report with a concussion and was limited in practice, so his status for the game is still in question. Don’t take the risk unless you have no other options in starting Renfrow.

Nelson Agholor – Start ‘Em

Nelson Agholor is the only constant in the Raiders receiver group. He clearly does not have the same chemistry with Marcus Mariota as he does with Derek Car,r as the veteran receiver put up just four catches for 49 yards on the night, and more than half of that yardage total came on Carr’s two early drives. It’s good news for Agholor owners that Carr is back under center so keep him in your lineup, especially if you can start him in the FLEX spot.
