Davante Adams Fantasy

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams, who was second in the NFL in targets with 169 last year behind Julio Jones' 170, is expected to see a healthy number of targets from quarterback Aaron Rodgers again. Id like to throw to Davante more, Rodgers said. Hes that open. Weve got to keep finding ways to get him the ball. Adams had 111 catches for 1,386 yards and 13 touchdowns last year and has proven to be one of the premier receivers in the NFL. He's an elite WR1 and will come off the board in the first round of drafts.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams is looking forward to being utilized out of the slot under new head coach Matt LaFleur. At 6-foot-1, 215 pounds, Adams is bigger than the average slot receiver in the NFL. I think thats something that Matt is definitely looking forward to having me do, and Im definitely looking forward to doing the same thing, said Adams. LaFleur may have to use a combination of Adams, Jake Kumerow, Geronimo Allison and Jimmy Graham in the slot now that Randall Cobb has moved on. It remains to be seen how much the Packers use Adams out of the slot. Regardless, Adams is a top-tier WR1 after breaking out for 13 touchdowns and his first 1,000-yard season in 2018. He has double-digit touchdowns each of the last three seasons.

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Davante Adams (knee) and Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) are both inactive for Week 17 against the Lions. It means that Adams will fall just short of the franchise marks for receptions and receiving yards in a single season. He was one of the more consistent WR1s in fantasy all year with a career-high 111 receptions for 1,386 yards and 13 touchdowns on the year. He has double-digit scores in each of the last three years and will be an elite WR1 next year. With both he and ESB out, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Jake Kumerow will be on the outside with Randall Cobb in the slot. Kumerow is the most attractive DFS sleeper of the bunch. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers should also be downgraded in this meaningless contest.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 17 against the Lions in a meaningless game. Adams didn't practice all week but needs just two catches to break the team's single-season reception mark. I see myself being out there. Im always going to be optimistic," Adams said on Wednesday. Interim head coach Joe Philbin said a final determination on Adams will be made during the walkthrough practice on Saturday, so fantasy owners should know in advance whether Adams is playing. If he's active, he'll be a no-doubt WR1. If he's out, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Jake Kumerow would be in three-receiver sets with Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) unlikely to play.

Green Bay Packers interim head coach Joe Philbin said wide receiver Davante Adams' (knee) status for Week 17 against the Lions is up in the air. Well have to see how he does tomorrow," Philbin said. Adams looks truly questionable as he seeks to become the franchise's single-season leader in catches and receiving yards. If he's active, he's a must-start in fantasy. With Equanimeous St. Brown also iffy with a concussion, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Randall Cobb and Jake Kumerow could have bigger roles.
