After missing Week 13 with a calf injury, Saints wideout Willie Snead came back strong against the Bucs and their 20th-ranked passing defense this Sunday. Snead reeled in 7 of 8 targets from Drew Brees for 122 yards, contributing 9.74 Reception NEP in the Saints' win 24-17 over Tampa Bay.

And as the team's most reliable receiver, this performance will only improve his team-leading 0.69 Reception NEP per target that has made him one of Brees' favorite go-to options in the passing game.

Snead is getting hot at just the right time as he goes up against the Lions (29th-ranked pass defense), Jaguars (31st), and Falcons (21st) in the final three weeks of the season. With one of the more favorable rest-of-season schedules of any wide receiver that may be out there on your league waiver wire, Snead should be a top wide receiver add for those in need at the position this week.
