Welcome to Dudes or Duds. I am here to tell you what players are all hype and which players are the real deal. The Dude or Dud posts will tell you not only who you should pick up, but the posts should tell you who to trade for and who to not.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR: Keelan Cole

Keelan Cole is the WR 1 in Jacksonville and his QB is hot. The undrafted free agent has made a name for himself and I don’t see him going any where anytime soon (barring any injuries of course). Keelan is a WR you may not be able to pick up anymore, but he is a WR I believe you can get for cheap. The upside of the young WR is plentiful with very little down side at the price you would need to pay for him. The Jaguars had a rough week 3, but I believe Keelan Cole will be a easy player to target in a trade with his price being low. Do not allow Keenan Cole’s performance to discourage you as he finished with a team high 9 targets proving he is the top option in Jacksonville.

Los Angeles Chargers WR: Mike Williams

Mike Williams had a poor rookie season last year struggling with injuries, but his 2018 campaign is off to a great start. If he is still available in your league go and get him! He is currently the #2 WR for the Chargers behind Keenan Allen. Phillip Rivers has had a very promising start and is ranked the #7 QB right now in fantasy. Mike Williams currently has 3 TDs in the last two weeks and I believe he will continue to roll all season and not only be a WR #2 for the Chargers, but a WR #2 for your fantasy team.

Kansas City Chiefs WR: Sammy Watkins

SELL HIGH! I saw him on many pick’em up lists last week. He went on to score a touchdown week 3, but I see him as a player who only catches 3 to 4 more touchdowns in 2018. The Chiefs have Patrick Maholme’s legs, Kareem Hunt, Travis Kelce, and Tyreek Hill all taking touchdowns away from Sammy Watkins. He is a risky start, so why not trade for a more consistent WR.

Baltimore Ravens RB: Javorious Allen

Javorious Allen has 4 touchdowns in the first 3 weeks, but if you look at his stat line he only has 32 rush yards in those weeks. The lack of volume is extremely concerning and Javorious Allen is splitting carries, so I would not pick him up unless you truly had to. If you have him already I would look for possible trade options for him.
