BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: If you're one of the 99% fantasy GMs out there opting not to roster Zay Jones before Week 12: congratulations, you dodged a very hurting bullet. If you're one of the 99% fantasy GMs out there opting not to roster Zay Jones these days: sorry, because you missed on cheap/free greatness. But there is still one week to fix your wrongs if you're part of the latter group of fantasy GMs!
Jones, he of the 1% rostership in Yahoo leagues, has racked up goodies for three weeks straight. Jones has seen 5+ targets in all of his last six games played, has logged snap shares at or above 75% in five games straight, and he's caught at least 5 passes five of the last six matches he's appeared on. The PPR scores: 12.7, 11.0, and lastly a season-high 19.9 PPR points in W17 at Indy. Not bad for a one-percenter, if you ask me.
The Raiders and Chargers will face each other in a win-and-get-in intra-division game next weekend. With both squads sitting at 9-7, whoever gets the W will be very happy. Jones' usage has been sky-high of late, and he's made the most of it. Three straight games of 6+ catches, 50+ yards, and only the blemish of no touchdowns to Jones name. Even if that latter bit of info doesn't change and Jones doesn't find pay dirt, odds are the PPR points end in the 10+ realm without much trouble for the WR.
