There is no doubt about it. This is the perfect time of the year that you could be improving your fantasy team.

And it's really simple because there's going to be teams in your league that are currently scrambling.

They're 0 and 4. They're 1 and 3. They're dealing with injuries, by weeks. And you could come in and take advantage of their panic and fear. Because right now there are seven wide receivers in their own way who are about to break fantasy football,

explode, give you a bunch of fantasy points, and you could probably get them on the cheap.

And let's start by talking about Jackson Smith and Jigby.

Now this is going to be one of the guys who's not going to be super cheap to get, but that's completely fine because my rest of season rankings right now. I have a top 150 rest of season rankings in the fantasy blueprint. They have JSN if we redrafted today as a mid to late first round pick. Yes, that high. Because the dude's just been that good in terms of receiving production. But then in a prime time game, everybody watched him have just four catches. I say just four catches for 79 yards. That's still a very good game, averaging 20 yards per catch, especially because he did this basically all in the second half where he wasn't targeted for, I believe, the whole first half of that game. But down the stretch in the second half, especially on those final couple of drives of the game,

he came up huge for Sam Darnold with some big receptions. He was the go-to guy, and he has been all season long. Because so far this season, he's elevated from just being a slot-wide receiver in the past to being a ball winner on the outside. Eight and a half targets per game. A 35% target share is insane.

It's the third highest rate in the NFL right now, no matter what you're looking at. Like, look at any single set you want to right now. Oh, his yards per route run, in my opinion, the best predictor of how efficient a wide receiver is and how good they are, only behind Pooka and Akua. Over a four yards per route run is insane. If you're in the high twos, that's good. If you're in the threes, you're like elite. He is over four.

The only wider. Puka Nakuwa. Over a four yards per route run is insane. If you're in the high twos, that's good.

If you're in the threes, you're like elite. He is over four. The only wide receiver in the range right now playing as good as Jackson Smith and Jigba on a per route races is Puka Nakua. And you can see that right here in this graph. Receiving efficiency through the first four weeks, excluding Monday Night Football, according to stat accountant on Twitter. These are all the wide receivers right some of them are doing a little bit better than others you zoom in you see

some of the names like garret's playing well, Zayflowers. You see all those names. Up and to the right as good as. All the way over here by themselves are Jackson-Smith and Jigba and Pook and Nakua. They are that much better than everybody else in the NFL right now. That much better than guys like Aminaas St. Brown, right, who is also having a good year. Roma Dunzee, Quentin and Johnston,

ameka, Buka, right? All those guys are having good years. They're really up into the right. Different, different ballgame for the outliers in JSN and Pooka Nuku. Now, if you think about it, Pook andiku if we redrafted today, probably the number on overall pick and fantasy.

At worst, he's a top three fantasy pick.

JSN is in that tier of player.

JSN would be the wide receiver two or wide receiver three if we redrafted today in most leagues. But there's a decent chance people don't view him that way right now. Like sure, he's averaging 17.8 fantasy points per game. He's been a top 10 receiver, but he only has one receiving touchdown on these 35 targets. He should probably have somewhere around three receiving touchdowns based on his current volume right now and based on how much he's being used getting a 20% target share in the red zone. This is a guy who I would imagine your friends still believe Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, all of these guys. Nico Collins are still better fantasy assets than him. That's just not the case. And he has a quarterback in Sam Donald who's looking very good. And remember Sam Donald's wide receiver one last year, Justin Jefferson, who is a similar tier player. I would say Justin Jefferson is a better NFL player than JSN, but it's not by as wide of a margin as it once seemed. And what did Justin Jefferson do last year with Sam Donald? Oh, 153 targets. That's the pace that you're currently getting right now for JSN. Oh, 103 catches also the pace that you're getting right now with JSN. And he finishes a top three receiver in fantasy. Again, also in the range of outcomes right now for JSN if the touchdowns start coming for him. So now at this point right now, this might be your last chance because he's coming off of a four-catch, 79-yard game. It's only like 12 fantasy points. This is probably your last chance to buy somewhat low on JSN. Now, here are some of the recent trades going on. Ameca Buk is an absolute joke. Go get JSN. The Vine A chain's pretty fair. I'd much rather have JSN than Jamar Chase, then Marvin Harrison. Amarian Hampton and I'd rather have JSN for sure right now,

Bucky Irving dealing with an injury.

Stefan Diggs, like these are... fair. I'd much rather have JSN than Jammar Chase than Marvin Harrison. Umarion Hampton. I'd rather

have JSN for sure right now. Buckie Irving dealing with an injury. Stefan Diggs, like these are all jokes. Again, if you look at my rest of season top 150 rankings, if you're a blueprint member, if you're not, you can check it out and learn more at join the blueprint.com. JSN is a top 10, top 12 and top 10 overall player rest of the season trying to acquire him this is your last chance probably to do so all year for a cheaper price. And you could also probably get Jacoby Myers really cheap right now based on how bad Gino Smith. This Raiders offense has looked the past three weeks. They look awesome in week one. Not the case lately. Now, if you do recall Jacoby Myers to start the season was looking pretty good. Eight catches 97 yards yards, six catches 68 yards, a boatload of targets in these games. He was putting up top 24 wide receiver numbers the first two weeks of the season. And then it's cooled off. Last week, just three catches, or two weeks ago, just three catches. Last week just four catches. If you remember that game two weeks ago, it was the Trey Tucker explosion in a game where they're playing from behind against the commanders. Gino goes off, throws for a bunch of yards, 145 of them and three touchdowns, sadly go to Trey Tucker. Not much left for Brock Bowers gets just four catches or Jacoby Myers three for 63. But there wasn't a floor game, right? Even three for 63, 10 fantasy points or so, okay, that's fine. But we didn't have a terrible game up until about this last week. Four catches for 30 yards for Jacoby Myers isn't great. The entire offense struggled. When your leading receiver is Taitan and Brock Bowers, who was just catching dumpoffs for five catches for 46 yards, that's going to be a problem. Trey Tucker regresses back down to just two catches for 13 yards. Gino Smith in this game, they leaned on the running back, Ash and Genti, who got unlocked on the ground. Gino only threw 21 times in this game. He threw three interceptions as well, so that's part of it. When your running back is averaging 6.6 yards per carry on 21 carries, you're probably going to lean on the run when the quarterback is struggling. So it makes sense why the entire passing attack and the offense and guys like Jacoby Myers struggled last week, but he's still seeing all of the targets on this team. Like last week in a game where they struggled, he earned a 35% target chair, a season high and a team high. The next closest wide receivers were at 10%. Like again, Trey Tucker's going to have a couple of weeks this season like he did in week three where he pops off. He finds an end zone. He's's going to get unlocked downfield that's the type of nice player speedy downfield that fits with gino smith in his big arm and the willingness to throw those passes but he's not going to be a consistent player like jacobi meyers jacobie meyers through four weeks right now the usage is good 8.3 targets per game, top 13 in the NFL. A 26.6% target share is 15th in the NFL.

Last year, this would have ranked top 10. So he is one of the higher volume wide receivers in the NFL on an offense that is struggling right now. But let's just look back to last year. In his final 12 games of the season, these are 12 games without Devante Adams on that team. he averaged 15 fantasy points per game on 9.3 targets per game.

And now I would say, even though Gino is struggling coming off of a three interception game, Gino was still a better quarterback than they were putting out there last year. So be patient here. The first two weeks were good. The third week was okay. The fourth week was bad. This is giving you a by low window on a number one receiver in an offense that is still going to pass the ball. And that offense just does not have wide receiver competition.

And Brock Bowers himself, I don't believe is healthy right now. And I just don't believe Gino Smith is going to be looking his way as much if that's going to be the case until he's 100% healthy. Now, Brock Bowers wasn't on the injury report last week. But if you're watching the game, the guy's like limping around out there. so something's got to get.

In terms of Jacoby Myers,
