Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup for Week 9. Target Lee as a free agent WR to add, especially in PPR leagues.
BALLER MOVE: Add in All PPR Leagues
OWNED IN: 40% of Yahoo leagues
ANALYSIS: Marqise Lee has become a serviceable fantasy player without Allen Robinson this year. Over the past two weeks, Lee has had nine receptions on 16 targets for 155 yards. He's became one of Blake Bortles' favorite targets last year and has continued to build trust with his quarterback this season.
Lee obviously has a limited ceiling playing in the run-heavy Jacksonville offense. Jacksonville receivers have only caught two touchdowns this season, both being grabbed by Allen Hurns. But the passing game did start to show signs of life in Week 7 with Leonard Fournette on the sideline. Bortles threw for a season high 330 yards and Hurns became the first Jacksonville player to go for over 100 receiving yards on the year. The Jaguars proved defenses have to at least acknowledge the existence of the passing game.
The only two relevant receivers in the passing game are Lee and Hurns, and both should be owned in PPR leagues. They're going to see consistent targets and make for great bench receivers or bye week fill-ins. Each of them has a nice floor even if the ceiling isn't as high as you'd like it to be.
