DFS: Week 12 Wide Receiver Value Rankings
Here are theScore's wide receiver value rankings for Week 12 (Thursday games excluded):
Value Rankings
QB | RB | WR | TE
Top Options
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Odell Beckham Jr. (NYG) | at WAS | 10 |
| DeAndre Hopkins (HOU) | vs. NO | 10 |
| Larry Fitzgerald (ARI) | at SF | 9 |
| DeSean Jackson (WAS) | vs. NYG | 9 |
| Demaryius Thomas (DEN) | vs. NE | 8 |
| Brandin Cooks (NO) | at HOU | 8 |
| Sammy Watkins (BUF) | at KC | 8 |
| Mike Evans (TB) | at IND | 8 |
| Julio Jones (ATL) | vs. MIN | 8 |
ODB and Hopkins are 1 and 1A this week, with Beckham earning a slightly higher grade by virtue of having a lower salary and a better quarterback. Fitzgerald and Jackson have great matchups this week, while Cooks should be the Saints' focal point in Washington. Evans retains elite value even with Vincent Jackson back in the fold, though his ceiling is lower.
Best of the Rest
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Antonio Brown (PIT) | at SEA | 7 |
| Allen Hurns (JAC) | vs. SD | 7 |
| Brandon Marshall (NYJ) | vs. MIA | 7 |
| Kamar Aiken (BAL) | at CLE | 7 |
| T.Y. Hilton (IND) | vs. TB | 6 |
| Travis Benjamin (CLE) | vs. BAL | 6 |
| Stefon Diggs (MIN) | at ATL | 6 |
| Stevie Johnson (SD) | at JAC | 6 |
| Danny Amendola (NE) | at DEN | 6 |
| Martavis Bryant (PIT) | at SEA | 5 |
| A.J. Green (CIN) | vs. STL | 5 |
| Allen Robinson (JAC) | vs. SD | 5 |
| Michael Crabtree (OAK) | at TEN | 5 |
| Jarvis Landry (MIA) | at NYJ | 5 |
| Eric Decker (NYJ) | vs. MIA | 5 |
| Jeremy Maclin (KC) | vs. BUF | 5 |
Brown may be matchup-proof, but a showdown with the Seahawks in Seattle is as tough as it gets. Aiken should see enough volume to remain relevant, even with Matt Schaub under center. Hurns is better value than Robinson thanks to a lower salary and similar production. Landry's value takes a hit against the host Jets, but he won't have to contend with Darrelle Revis.
Nothing to See Here
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Amari Cooper (OAK) | at TEN | 4 |
| Vincent Jackson (TB) | at IND | 4 |
| Kendall Wright (TEN) | vs. OAK | 4 |
| Willie Snead (NO) | at HOU | 4 |
| Brandon LaFell (NE) | at DEN | 4 |
| Chris Givens (BAL) | at CLE | 3 |
| John Brown (ARI) | vs. SF | 3 |
| Pierre Garcon (WAS) | vs. NYG | 3 |
| Anquan Boldin (SF) | vs. ARI | 3 |
| Dwayne Harris (NYG) | at WAS | 3 |
| Leonard Hankerson (ATL) | vs. MIN | 2 |
| Donte Moncrief (IND) | vs. TB | 2 |
| Tavon Austin (STL) | at CIN | 2 |
| Nate Washington (HOU) | vs. NO | 2 |
| Cecil Shorts III (HOU) | vs. NO | 2 |
| Jamison Crowder (WAS) | vs. NYG | 2 |
| Dorial Green-Beckham (TEN) | vs. OAK | 2 |
| Torrey Smith (SF) | vs. ARI | 1 |
| Mike Wallace (MIN) | at ATL | 1 |
| Marvin Jones (CIN) | vs. STL | 1 |
| Doug Baldwin (SEA) | vs. PIT | 1 |
| Rueben Randle (NYG) | at WAS | 1 |
| Robert Woods (BUF) | at KC | 1 |
Cooper is coming off his worst game as a pro, and faces a stiff challenge from the Titans' stout pass defense. San Francisco receivers should be avoided, probably for the remainder of the season. Green-Beckham's gradual rise to DFS relevance takes a major hit if Wright comes back. Harris has seemingly passed Randle on Eli Manning's list of receiving targets.
