PHI WR Alshon Jeffery - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Los Angeles Chargers

With Darren Sproles out for the year, the rest of the Eagles pass-catchers should see at least a slight uptick in targets. Jeffery is a solid WR2 with Chargers top corner Jason Verrett on IR. The Chargers are also only 16th in our aFPA vs. PPR WR rankings, and he's averaged 9.3 targets per game. If you got him, start him.

PHI WR Alshon Jeffery - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. New York Giants

Jeffery almost doubled his targets from 7 to 13 in Week 2, giving fantasy owners the floor they were hoping to see as the Eagles' primary option in the passing game. Carson Wentz's volume doesn't hurt either (averaging 42 attempts per game). The matchup is tougher this week against the Giants (ranked fifth in our aFPA vs. PPR WRs), but consider Jeffery a low-end WR2 in all formats this week. He also has two red zone targets this season; therefore, Wentz is looking for him near the paydirt.

PHI WR Alshon Jeffery - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Kansas City Chiefs

Alshon Jeffery saw a lot of shutdown corner Josh Norman last week, leading to just 3 receptions for 38 yards on 7 targets. That's not going to get it done. There's concern again this week with Chiefs corner Marcus Peters looming. The Chiefs are 14th in aFPA vs. PPR WRs, but that is more about the Chiefs other corners, not the talented Peters. Because of this, Jeffery is again a low WR2 candidate in Week 2.

PHI WR Alshon Jeffery - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Washington

Reports say shutdown corner Josh Norman will draw the Alshon Jeffery assignment for Week 1, severely lowering his ceiling in his Eagles debut. That pushes Jeffery down to a more low-end WR2 rather than the high WR2 he was drafted at for this week. Washington was 15th in our aFPA vs. wide receivers last year; however, that was not due to Josh Norman struggling.

PHI WR Alshon Jeffery - 2017 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

Jeffery signed a one-year contract with the Eagles, betting on himself in an offense that was in desperate need of an upgrade at receiver last year. He should instantly get the most targets in the Eagles passing attack. Last year, Jordan Matthews led the team with 8.3 targets per game. At Jeffery's career 57.5 catch percentage, 4.9 percent touchdown rate, and 15.0 yards-per-reception average, that projects to 76 receptions, 1,145 yards, and 6.5 touchdowns. That's pretty darn close to 4for4 Senior Editor John Paulsen's projection for Jeffery.

Fantasy Downside

Receivers who change teams tend to underperform, unless they see an upgrade in quarterback and/or targets. It’s unlikely Jeffery sees either. He's also missed 11 games the past two seasons. For these reasons, Jeffery comes with some risk.

2017 Bottom Line

Jeffery's lack of elite target volume holds him back from joining the ranks of the elite fantasy receivers, in addition to the risks outlined above. For those reasons, he is likely a fantasy WR2 this season at his late-third/early-fourth ADP.

CHI WR Alshon Jeffery - Week 17, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Minnesota
Alshon Jeffery has been strong since his return from a four-game suspension. He's had 89 yards (one TD) and 92 yards in his last two games, respectively.

Jeffery's stats may take a hit this week, however, as he goes up against a tough Vikings secondary. While Minnesota was torched last week by Jordy Nelson, they've typically been a tough defense to have success against.

Jeffery may not go bonkers this week, but he should be a solid start. He had 63 yards and a touchdown earlier in the season against Minnesota, and should be viewed as a low-end WR2.

CHI WR Alshon Jeffery - Week 16, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Washington
Alshon Jeffery returned last week and delivered a strong 6-89-1 performance. But it's worth noting two other Bears receivers finished with more targets, receptions and yards than Jeffery last week.

This week, Jeffery will get a favorable matchup against the Redskins as Washington has allowed the fifth-most receiving yards per game (277.1). Jeffery is also the most likely candidate on the Bears to get red zone looks due to his height advantage.

Jeffery won't be an elite option, but he should be a solid WR2 with upside.
