10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 15
Which players on your league's waiver can help keep your team's season alive?

Denard Robinson, RB, Jacksonville Jaguars

ESPN Ownership: 3.6%
Yahoo! Ownership: 8%

Rookie T.J. Yeldon hurt his knee on Sunday, and on Monday, head coach Gus Bradley declined to give an update on his status. That angers fantasy owners, of course, but it's also a sign in the wrong direction. If Yeldon was fine, we'd assume Bradley would say he's fine. Right?

Now it's Denard Robinson's turn, who's been the lead back for Jacksonville in the past, and actually done quite well. Over his three-year career, Robinson's played in eight games where he's seen 10 or more carries. In those contests, he's averaged 13.65 PPR fantasy points. And in the six games where he attempted 14 or more runs, he's averaged 16.3 PPR points per contests.

Cherry picking stats or not, Robinson has been a fairly reliable option when he sees volume. And in Week 15, Jacksonville gets Atlanta, a team that ranks as average against the run according to our metrics, having surrendered the third most points to the position this year. 

If Yeldon is out, Robinson becomes a must add.
