Cam Sims Fantasy

The Washington Football Team re-signed restricted free-agent wide receiver Cam Sims on Wednesday. Washington put the right-of-first-refusal tender on Sims on March 16, which is worth $2.133 million for the 2021 season. He played for $675,000 last year. Sims had just two catches for 27 yards in his first two NFL seasons, and he had three catches for 39 yards while playing 16 offensive snaps six games into his third season. But he started to see more playing time after that in 2020 and started the final 10 games of the season and Washington's playoff game. The 25-year-old finished with 32 catches for 477 yards and a touchdown and finished second to Terry McLaurin in catches and receiving yards. Sims showed he can produce last season, but it's unclear how big of a role he'll have behind McLaurin and Curtis Samuel in 2021.

Washington Football Team wide receiver Cam Sims led Washington with seven catches for 104 yards in a loss to the Buccaneers in the wild-card round. Sims was targeted a season-high 13 times by Taylor Heinicke who started for Alex Smith (calf). Sims certainly made a name for himself on the playoff stage, but the 100-yard performance was just his second of the season. Sims primarily runs downfield routes so he's a boom-or-bust option in fantasy with a 14.9 yards-per-catch average and only one touchdown. Washington will certainly address their receiving depth this offseason so making Sims only a deep-league option in non-PPR formats.

Washington Football Team wide receiver Cam Sims became a bigger part of the offense down the stretch and is an interesting fantasy option on Saturday versus Tampa Bay. Sims saw 22 targets in the last three games catching 13 passes for 132 yards. On the season, Sims caught 32 passes for 477 yards and one touchdown in 11 games. He has no floor for fantasy as he has five games this season with two or fewer targets and Terry McLaurin (ankle) playing could cut into Sims' targets. However, Sims does also have two 90-plus yard games this season and is cheap on DFS sites. Sims is worth a shot as a value-play in fantasy versus the Buccaneers.
