NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 8, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs CHI
Lafell caught four of his five targets in Week 7, hauling in a 4-55 line. He played 96% of the snaps and has a lock on the Patriots WR2 role. 4for4 has long talked up LaFell as a potential sleeper, and it seems he may finally offer us some redemption on that front.

He should continue to find success in some weeks, but as the third or fourth target on the team, he'll be inconsistent week to week. We rank him as as WR39 and wR44 this week. LaFell can be considered a low-floor boom/bust play.

NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 7, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs New York Jets
LaFell has been playing well ahead of both Danny Amendola and Aaron Dobson, and seems to have carved out a nice role as the Patriots WR #2. In Week 6, LaFell put together his second strong fantasy showing in three weeks, with a 4-97-2 line. As the 3rd or 4th target on the team, LaFell will remain a bit of a boom/bust option. However, he has entered starting consideration in your lineups, especially in deeper leagues. We rank him as WR44 and WR47 in PPR this week, but could take on a heavy blocking role on any given Sunday (or Thursday)

NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 6, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Buffalo
If the last two weeks are any indication, LaFell seems to have become the team's WR #2, after Julian Edelman. He's vastly out snapped Danny Amendola in that time. While this may be a nice real football accomplishment for LaFell, it may or may not translate to fantasy relevance. After a strong 6-119-1 line in Week 4, LaFell offered up only a 1-20 line in Week 5. He may put up a few points for your team, but he's tough to trust in any format or league size. We rank him at WR60 and WR63 in PPR.

NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 5, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Cincinnati
With Kenbrell Thompkins and Aaron Dobson inactive, LaFell was the fantasy winner of the day. Playing on 100% of the snaps, LaFell seems to have taken over the #2 WR role, at least in fantasy if not in real life. I doubt many of you started LaFell last week, but if you did you enjoyed one of the lone fantasy bright spots on the Patriots Week 4 outing, as he had a season high 6-119-1 line on the day.

We are not projecting LaFell with a sudden ascension to fantasy starter status, especially as Dobson and Thompkins figure to be bigger factors in the future. In a tougher Week 5 matchup, we rank LaFell WR62 and WR67 in PPR.

NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 4, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Kansas City
LaFell seems to have carved out a consistent real football role for the Patriots, playing between 45-57% of the snaps each week. His blocking ability in the run game has helped him get on the field as much as he has. Despite having 14 targets on the season, he has only a 4-46 line going for him. Until anything changes, he's a fantasy non-factor this season.

NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 3, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs Oakland
Through two weeks, LaFell has played half the offensive snaps. He still awaits his first reception as a Patriot, though. While LaFell may be a solid depth option for New England, he's a fantasy zero until further notice.

NE WR Brandon LaFell - Week 2, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Minnesota
I maintain that LaFell was a nice real football signing for the Patriots. Until something changes, though, he has relatively zero fantasy value. LaFell should not be owned in any but the deepest of formats.
