ROSTERED IN: 34% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: While many expected Jahan Dotson to be Washington's No. 2 receiver through six weeks, the reality is that Curtis Samuel has been the clear No. 2. Samuel has very easily been the best fantasy football value among the Commander pass-catchers. Samuel is coming off of three straight weeks where he's scored a touchdown. He finished as the WR1o in Week 4 and WR15 in Week 5 in half-PPR scoring.

This past weekend, he scored 14.2 half-PPR points. From Weeks 4-5, he scored 36.7 points. He's scored over six points in five out of six weeks and finished as a top-40 receiver in four out of six weeks. He has four weeks with at least four receptions or more and 50 or more receiving yards. He's been remarkably consistent despite being viewed as the Commanders' No. 3 receiver.
Fantasy managers should view him as a weekly streamer and a player who can easily be started with bye weeks well underway. Washington plays against the Giants in Week 7, who have given up the 11th-most fantasy points to receivers this season.
