WR Rankings – Week Seventeen
Keenan Allen is in the midst of the best rookie season for a wide receiver since A.J Green and can become only the third rookie receiver since 2005 with a 1,000 yard receiving season with 43 more yards this week. Allen comes in as our 12th ranked receiver for week seventeen. Allen will be a WR2 with WR1 upside for the 2014 season.
Josh Gordon leads the NFL after sixteen weeks with 1,564 yards in 13 games to Calvin Johnson’s 1,494 in 14 games. Gordon comes in as our number three wide out this week after falling back to earth in recent weeks. Gordon will be a top four wideout option for the 2014 season.
Alshon Jeffery set the fantasy world on fire this year and currently sits as the seventh overall receiver in ESPN standard leagues. Jeffery will vie to be a WR1 option in 2014 and comes in as our 11th ranked receiver for week seventeen.
2013 saw DeSean Jackson return to his elite deep threat ways and finishes the fantasy season tied as the 7th overall ranked receiver in standard formats. Jackson is our 7th ranked receiver for week seventeen.
Riley Cooper is currently ranked as the 21st overall fantasy receiver in ESPN standard leagues and comes in as our 22nd ranked receiver for week seventeen. Cooper has been an amazing ADP value this year but is set to see his fantasy stock tumble if Jeremy Maclin remains with the Eagles for 2014.
Michael Floyd is 50 yards away from cracking the 1,000 yard mark and you can be sure Palmer will be looking to help hit that mark in a tough matchup against the Seahawks this week. Floyd currently sits as the 22nd overall ranked receiver in ESPN standard leagues and comes in at number 29 in our week seventeen rankings.
