Players to Buy
Marvin Jones led the Jaguars in targets (11) followed by Evan Engram (10) in Week 5. Zay Jones also saw 8 targets. Kirk saw just three targets and caught one pass for 11 yards. Chalk it up to WR variance. Marvin Jones won’t see Kirk’s double-digit targets normally. The routes were still there for Kirk. He’s in a nice bounce-back spot ahead of Week 6 versus the Colts. In their first matchup, Kirk caught 6 passes for 78 yards and 2 TDs.
Miles Sanders saw top-tier usage in Week 5. 15 carries to Kenneth Gainwell‘s 3. Also added 3 targets for a 86% opportunity share while running a route on 65% of dropbacks. And most importantly, Sanders earned 3 carries inside the 10-yard line. However, he just didn’t score. That won’t happen every week.
For the second straight week Travis Etienne and James Robinson split carries – 10 for each of them. But ETN was more efficient rushing for 71 yards to Robinson’s 27 yards. Etienne was also the more involved receiver, seeing 5 targets versus Robinson’s 2. And played a higher snap share (53% vs 40%) with more routes run (54% versus 32%). The increased snap usage was a tell-tale sign to buy guys like Rhamondre Stevenson and Breece Hall in past weeks, so follow the snaps and trade for Etienne.
