Cole Beasley Fantasy

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley made some noise during the regular season and could be in store for a solid outing against Houston on Saturday. Beasley had his most productive season to date in his first season in Buffalo, catching 67 of his 106 targets for 778 yards and six touchdowns, which were all the best numbers of his career. The Texans Defense--primarily its secondary--is a bit banged up, which is good news for Beasley. However, there is still some risk as the veteran recorded four catches or less in eight games on the year.

Buffalo Bills wide receivers John Brown and Cole Beasley, rookie running back Devin Singletary, rookie tight end Dawson Knox, defensive end Shaq Lawson (hamstring) and cornerback Tre'Davious White are all inactive for Week 17 against the Jets. The Bills are locked into a wild-card game next weekend, so they'll rest most of their starters in this one. Don't expect quarterback Josh Allen to play much, if at all, either. Veteran Frank Gore and T.J. Yeldon will handle the backfield duties in Week 17, with Duke Williams, Isaiah McKenzie and Robert Foster available in three-receiver sets. Backup QB Matt Barkley should see a lot of run in this game. Avoiding the Bills offense is the best strategy in fantasy. White's absence on D should help Jets wideout Robby Anderson post solid numbers.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley posted his second 100-yard game of the year in Week 16 against the Patriots. This week, Beasley and the Bills face the Jets in a game that is essentially meaningless for the Bills as they are locked into the fifth seed in the AFC playoffs. The team has reported that No. 1 receiver John Brown could sit out the game or just see a heavily reduced workload. Either of those scenarios would benefit Beasley as long as Beasley isn't held out or held back himself. Monitor updates on Beasley, Brown and quarterback Josh Allen as Week 17 approaches. If Beasley's a go, he should be worthy of starting as a WR3 or flex in deep PPR leagues, albeit without having a particularly high ceiling.
