Sammy Watkins
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Sammy Watkins makes a catch during a game in 2014."

Allen Hurns (Jacksonville Jaguars) at Indianapolis Colts

Rank: 3rd option at wide receiver

Analysis: Hurns should make his triumphant return after suffering a brutal concussion. With Vontae Davis shadowing Allen Robinson all day Hurns should see some open airspace to put up big numbers. Hurns has been consistent all year only tapering off in the last couple of weeks thanks to injury. Hurns should regain is WR2 status but have some quality WR1 performance.

 

Sammy Watkins (Buffalo Bills) at Philadelphia Eagles:

Rank: 1st option at wide receiver

Analysis: Watkins has been on fire these past few weeks. He has 3 touchdowns in the last two games and three 100 yard games in the last 5 games. The Eagles have allowed 28 passing touchdowns so Watkins should have a ton of chances to get into the end zone.

 

Alshon Jeffery (Chicago Bears) at Washington Redskins:

Rank:  9th option at wide receiver

Analysis: Jeffery is averaging 11 targets in the 6 out of 7 games he has played in. The Redskins allow 17 touchdown receptions to opposing receivers and after the way the Redskins cornerbacks struggled with Cowboy wide receivers in week 13 they will likely have more trouble with Jeffery and a red hot Bears offense.

 

A.J. Green (Cincinnati Bengals) VS Pittsburgh Steelers

Rank: 7th option at wide receiver

Analysis: Green has been pretty dominant as of late. He has 3 touchdowns in 2 games and went off on the Steelers the first time these two teams have faced one another. Green had 118 yards and a touchdown the last time these two teams faced so do not be surprised if Green sees double digit targets.

Honorable Mentions: (Any healthy San Diego wide receiver)/Anquan Boldin (San Francisco 49ers)/Allen Robinson (Jacksonville Jaguars)/Doug Baldwin, Tyler Lockett (Seattle Seahawks)/Dorial Green-Beckham (Tennessee Titans)/Marvin Jones (Cincinnati Bengals)/Odell Beckham JR (New York Giants)
