BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Both Gabriel Davis and teammate and fellow receiver Emmanuel Sanders missed Week 16 after hitting the protocols. One week later, Sanders didn't recover in time while Davis was available for the Bills. Davis wasn't the best player out there, I know, but being available and playing 63+ snaps for the third consecutive game should be enough for needy fantasy GMs out there to keep adding him to their rosters in the still-ongoing leagues out there in advance of Week 18.
Davis took advantage of his heavier role on back-to-back games spanning Weeks 14 and 15. He appeared on 65 and 63 offensive plays respectively and got to score 15.3 and 25.5 PPR points in those two games, with receiving of 8-5-43-1 and 7-5-85-2 respectively. He had already scored a touchdown in Week 13, but he missed on doing so this past weekend. Facing a lowly Falcons team, Davis finished Sunday's game with a 3-3-40 line and a low 7-PPR tally.
No matter if Sanders misses time or he doesn't in the final week of the season, Davis should still gather a lot of QB Josh Allen's attention and targets while staying on the field for a large number of offensive snaps. TE Dawson Knox got banged up last Sunday and there is a chance more three-wideout/no-TE sets are deployed come next weekend. The Bills need the W to not depend on New England's result to stay on top of the division, so it's not that they can just forfeit this one. Add Davis pretty much in every league as he's easily worth the WR3/Flex start.
