The trade deadline is quickly approaching in your fantasy league, and there's some wide receivers

right now that you should be targeting. I believe that the seven wide receivers in this video are currently underpriced in the market, meaning that you could buy low on them and improve your team right now. And we'll start with one that you're probably not thinking about, and it's Mike Evans. I think now is the time to buy Mike Evans, because heading into week eight, everybody was saying, okay, who are the wide receivers that are going to replace

Mike Evans, who's out for a couple of weeks,

and Chris Gobin, who's done for the year.

The popular choice was jaylon mcmillan a rookie who looked exciting okay he had seven targets this past week but he really didn't do much with that in his performance on those seven targets you get four catches for 35 yards people thought that he would take over this chris gobwin roll they thought that jaylonillan, the rookie, who's looked okay, not great, not elite, nowhere near that at times this year. People thought he would be the slot-wide receiver. But plain and simple, he wasn't. He played on the outside with second-year player, Tray Palmer, while Sterling Shepard commanded the slot, that very valuable role in this offense. Baker-Mayfield loves throwing to his slot receivers. We've seen Chris Gobman have a ton of upside with that role this year so far. But Sterling Shepherd is 32 years old. He injured his hamstring in that game. And now overall, the wide receiver room just looks like meh. Because in week eight, the leading receivers for this team was tight end Kda and with nine catches for 81 yards, multiple scores. And then the running back, seven catches for Bucky Irving, five catches for Rashad White.

The two main running backs on this team combined for 12 catches on 13 targets. So I think that's what we're going to see moving forward. The running backs involved in KDotin being the priority. So the answer to which one of these wide receivers is going to fill in for Goblins and Evans is probably none of them. Now, of course, that doesn't mean that Jalen McMillan, who's seen 15 targets the last two weeks,

can pop off for a 20-plus is probably none of them. Now, of course, that doesn't mean that Jalen McMillan, who's seen 15 targets the last two weeks,

can't pop off for a 20-plus yard touchdown on the outside and have a nice fantasy day. Trey Palmer, who has some of the best speed we've seen entered the NFL the last few years, he can't pop off and have a nice fantasy day. I'm not saying that these guys can't have a pop-up week here and there. they're just not going to be consistent producers like many people expected when they spent

$40 of their fab on Jaila McMillan. So while everybody's worrying about which

random Buckswider receiver who doesn't have a ton of upside is going to be the next guy, I'm just going to say, I'll take the actual guy, Mike Evans, who should be returning in a couple of weeks after the week 10 buy for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It makes Evans a clear buy for me, and if you're a team

right now that's lucky enough to be six and two, even four and four. Heck, even three and five,

I think you can get away with trading for Evans. Who I would consider right now a top 10 wide receiver the rest of the season because once he's back, he doesn't have to compete with Chris Godwin for targets. And the encouraging thing for me was that the buck's offense didn't fall apart this last week without Gobwin and Evans. We still saw Baker Mayfield, although he had a throw 50 times

completing a good amount of his passes 330 yards multiple touchdowns in this game yes he did struggle and have some miscommunications with his wide receivers but that's to be expected when you're down your top two guys and you're playing rookies and second year players for the most part but once evans returns all that miscommunication should start to come down a little bit. And again, we did see a nice performance from the Bucks last week. Now, Evans has started and completed five games this year. This is the five games right here, the game logs according to player profiler. And in those five games that he started and completed, a number six wide receiver finish, a number five and a number eight. So he's finished as a top 10 wide receiver three times in those five completed games, and that's with Chris Godwin in those games. When he comes back, he won't have Godwin, so I think this guy is a ton of upside, obviously weakly once back. And if he indeed returns in the week 11 game after the buy, he'll face the Giants. That's a fine matchup. Then he gets the Panthers, a fantastic matchup. A fine matchup against the Raiders. But more importantly, look at his fantasy playoff schedule. A matchup against the Cowboys, that is a bottom 10 secondary right now. And then a matchup at home in the fantasy championship, if you were fortunate enough to make it there, against the Panthers, which is a bottom five secondary right now. I think Evans has a very strong rest of season schedule,

and assuming he's back in week 11 with no complications is a great by-low right now. Now, the next player I'd consider a strong by-low is Amari Cooper, who had a frustrating day in week eight. If you're a fantasy manager of him, which I am, I was expecting big things. He had a solid performance, scores of touchdown, multiple catches in his debut on a short week, and then does nothing in week 8.

Remember week 7 when he only plays and runs 34% of the routes,

but he still earns 6% of the targets, is targeted on 42% of his routes, which for reference would easily lead the NFL, right? It was a small sample, five targets on 12 routes run, but he ended up having like four catches, finds the end zone, 16 fantasy points, and now he had a whole other week to practice, but it didn't lead to anything. Because although the usage nearly doubled, 63% of the routes run, the actual targets and volume he was getting didn't. Just 6% of the targets in this game. That translated to a very poor performance. We'll pull it up right here for Marri Cooper. Cooper goes out there, he catches just one ball for three yards. He only earns two targets. And you know what happened on his other target in this game? He slipped in a

game that there was some rain, some miss during it. He slipped and that ball was intercepted for Josh Allen's first interception of the year. So like literally as bad of a performance as you could have in week eight. And what made it even more frustrating was that these other Bill's receivers who have been on the team all year and really not done much for the most part,

they went off.

Nine catches over 100 yards for Cleo Shura, leads the team with 10 targets. Keon Coleman for the second straight week, five catches, 70 yards, a touchdown, continues to produce after the catch on seven targets. Heck, even Dalton Kincaid earned seven targets. Like all the guys that the bills already had on their roster are producing and the guy that was supposed to be the producer that's why they traded a third round pick for him amari cooper at least in this game failed but there are a few things to keep in mind here as i just showed you earlier he's still in a limited role he's only running 63% of the routes that'll get to the 80s to 90s once he knows the full playbook and this game also featured some bad weather and we should also note that that Amari Cooper is known for being a boomer bust, you know, some upside weeks, and then he disappears some weeks in his NFL career.

Now, I'm not. Now I'm not

that, I'm not saying that's what happened here. There's other factors like the limited role, like the new offense, like the weather, but it's not something you should just be giving up on Amari Cooper because of one poor performance. We literally just saw the week before while playing like 25% of the snaps, he had a nice game.

And overall, if we take a step back,
