The Top WRs To Start in Week 9
Gabe Davis, Buffalo Bills
Was last week’s win over the Bucs a career turning point for Davis? That might be a little dramatic, but he pulled in nine of 12 targets, giving us a taste of the volume we have only dreamt of in the past.

The raw numbers are encouraging, but it was the path to earning them that has me very interested in. During Weeks 1-7, Davis established an aDOT of 14.97 yards, while last week, he saw an aDOT of just 6.67 yards.
Tyler Lockett, Seattle Seahawks
The veteran has four weeks outside of the top 40, but he’s coming off of a strong 8-81-1 showing against the Browns that resulted in his second top-15 performance of the season.
At this point, you know what you’re getting from Lockett. And by “knowing,” I mean that you know that you don’t know what you’re getting.
The fact that he, like DK Metcalf, has seen volume on a consistent basis (7+ targets in the majority of his games) is enough to convince me to consider Lockett as a Flex option, but he can be benched by managers with nice receiver depth.
I have him ranked alongside other volatile options like Jahan Dotson and Rashid Shaheed.
