10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 15
With Isaiah Crowell going down with an injury on Sunday, Elijah McGuire will likely be the lead back for the Jets in Week 15.

DaeSean Hamilton and Tim Patrick, WR, Denver Broncos

DaeSean Hamilton Yahoo Ownership: 7%

Tim Patrick Yahoo Ownership: 0%

Courtland Sutton was expected to be the main beneficiary of Emmanuel Sanders' season-ending Achilles injury, but Sutton likely killed many a fantasy dream this past weekend, turning 6 targets into just 2 receptions for 14 yards. Ouch.

Instead, it was DaeSean Hamilton and Tim Patrick who stepped up, with Hamilton drawing 9 targets for 7 catches, 47 yards and a score, while Patrick grabbed 7-of-10 targets for 85 yards.

It's tough to trust either one in a playoff matchup following a one-game sample size -- and it's not like Sutton is going anywhere, either -- and the Browns don't necessarily make for a plus matchup as numberFire's number-two passing defense entering Week 14.

But that kind of volume can't be ignored if you're in a bind, particularly in PPR formats. Hamilton figures to be the safer choice as the higher-regarded prospect with the slot receiver role, but both deserve a look as a potential FLEX.
