Honestly, I can't believe that Brian Hartline made this list this season. But two primary factors make him worth adding on waivers this week.
First, Hartline has received fewer than 10 targets in only one of the four most recent games he's played, which was Week 10 when he received 9 targets. Targets are of utmost importance in fantasy football, and Hartline's getting his. Second, he may be in line for an even bigger target share in Week 14 (and possibly beyond) depending on the condition of Travis Benjamin, who had to leave Sunday's game with a shoulder injury.
Hartline's 8 catches for 83 yards on Sunday may not have set the earth on fire, but it sure was a serviceable stat line, particularly in PPR leagues. And he's caught at least six balls or scored a touchdown in his last four games. Grab Hartline off of waivers as a volume play, particularly if the information on Benjamin's shoulder isn't positive.
