Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets: Jahan Dotson
Jahan Dotson (WSH): 23% rostered
- Next opponents: @ DET, PHI, @ DAL
- True value: $3
- Desperate need: $6
- Budget-minded: $1
Analysis: Jahan Dotson is a talented rookie who will grab headlines for his two-touchdown performance, but I’m more interested in his route volume than chasing touchdowns. Dotson ran a route on 97.5% of Washington’s passing plays in Week 1. The problem is that he only drew a 12.1% target share. As Carson Wentz‘s fourth option in the passing game, there will be peaks and valleys throughout the season despite Dotson’s talent.
