Tajae Sharpe Week 18 Outlook -

To put his price even with Davis' feels odd, but knowing how little Davis has produced, it kind of makes sense. Still, Sharpe isn't someone that should be considered as anything more than a hail-mary, as he's seen more than four targets just once all year. He's also topped 31 yards just twice. He'll see a lot of Jonathan Jones in the slot, the cornerback who's allowed just 360 yards and two touchdowns all year while in the slot. However, he has struggled as of late with Jason McCourty out of the lineup, allowing 20-of-27 passing for 322 yards and three touchdowns over the last six weeks in his coverage (being asked to play on the perimeter a lot more). There have been just two wide receivers all year who've finished with 12-plus PPR points against the Patriots while seeing less than seven targets. Those receivers were Kenny Stills and John Brown, who both broke big plays, not something Sharpe is known for. I'd rather play Davis.
