Michael Crabtree leads Raiders receivers in Week 2, worth waiver wire consideration

Michael Crabtree led Raiders receivers in nearly every category on Sunday. We take a look at the fantasy implications.

Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sports

Michael Crabtree got off to a slow start for the 2015 season, but he came to life in Week 2. Crabtree finished Sunday's game with nine receptions for 111 yards and a touchdown. He was targeted a team-high 16 times. Quarterback Derek Carr was much more comfortable in the pocket, getting sacked just once during the game. Crabtree capitalized on Carr's penchant for short and intermediate passes alongside rookie receiver Amari Cooper.

Crabtree will look to prove he can remain a consistent weapon in the Raiders' offense when the team heads to Cleveland to face the Browns in Week 3.

Fantasy impact: Crabtree has always been a gifted receiver, but questions remained as to whether or not the Raiders could build a consistent offensive identity and utilize him properly. There are still questions after just two weeks, but Crabtree's performance on Sunday warrants consideration in all fantasy leagues. He's available in over 75 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Crabtree was flirting with a WR3 status heading into the regular season. He's making a case for it as of now.
