Demarcus Robinson is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for wide receivers. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 5 of the 2024 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Demarcus Robinson finished last season as the Los Angeles Rams’ WR3 and has remained one of quarterback Matthew Stafford's favorite targets so far in 2024. While he is yet to break out with a big performance in the young season, Robinson has seen his fair share of targets, averaging 4.5 per game.
Over the past two weeks, Robinson has led the Rams’ receiving corps in snap percentage (89%), route share (89.7%), and air-yard share (42.1%). Those analytics support the idea that Robinson is due for a big game and will rack up both receptions and receiving yards.

On top of that, Cooper Kupp (ankle) and Puka Nacua (knee) will remain sidelined for the foreseeable future, which means that Robinson will continue to see increased volume in Week 4.
There is risk associated with picking up Robinson, as he has yet to accumulate over 8.2 fantasy points (PPR) in a game. However, he is in a prime position to succeed in Week 5 as he is once again set to be the Rams’ WR1. Consider picking him up and starting him as a flex option in deep leagues.
