Surprisngly, the Oakland Raiders have some serious firepower in the fantasy world. They have a QB1, an RB1 and two top-15 receivers in PPR formats. Receiver Amari Cooper was drafted as a WR2, but Michael Crabtree went undrafted in most fantasy leagues.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 10: Michael Crabtree healthy and ready to roll
Michael Crabtree was picked up off the scrap heap, but he’s really flourished this season. We break down the fantasy implications.
Since the bye in Week 6, Crabtree has been on fire, catching 20 passes for 273 yards and four scores over the last three games. He’s been a top-five receiver in that span and has become even more dangerous than Cooper right now. Carr has four TDs in each of his last two games and is also in a groove.
This week, the Raiders get a tough matchup for the passing game against the Minnesota Vikings. They've allowed just three touchdowns to receivers in their last five games and their schedule has been pretty tough, too.
Fantasy impact: Crabtree has just been too good to bench right now. He’s not a must-start player, but he’s a nice low-end WR2.
