BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze has flashed at times through his rookie campaign but has struggled seeing consistent targets which makes him a WR3 this weekend.
Through the first two weeks of the season, Odunze caught just three passes but saw nine targets. Then, in Week 3, the Washington product enjoyed a breakout performance as he caught six passes for 122 yards and a score.

However, in Week 4 he took a significant step back as he caught only one of his three targets. Last weekend, Odunze saw his targets increase slightly (6) and caught five of them for 40 yards.
With a crowded wide receiver room consisting of DJ Moore and Keenan Allen, Odunze has risk given that he may only see a handful of targets in a single game. However, facing a week Jacksonville defense that has allowed the 31st-most points to opposing wideouts makes the first-round rookie a high-upside WR3 with risk.
