Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson (shoulder) suffered a shoulder injury on Wednesday, and an update on his status should be released Thursday. The 25-year-old played in just two games in his rookie season due to an injury, so he's no stranger to missing time. He is set for a big role in the offense in 2018 after catching 35 passes for 502 yards and six touchdowns in his sophomore campaign. A significant injury to Doctson would make Paul Richardson's stock go up.

Each year, elite wide receivers are some of the mainstays of fantasy football rosters. With high target shares and production values, these consensus top-tier wide receivers are some of the first names off of draft boards and consistently perform well throughout the season. However, there is also a good amount of unpredictability at the position, with breakout players appearing from out of nowhere year-in and year-out. Whether they dominate for stretches over the year or end up as top-level t[...]

When you get to the late rounds of fantasy football drafts, you are chasing upside. You already have your starting rotation of players in the fold; now all that is left is to find that league-winning talent late in your drafts that nobody sees coming. These value picks serve two purposes: 1) they add depth to your roster and provide valuable cover should your earlier picks falter or get injured and 2) they have the upside to become top-level options in your roster as the season progresses.

The appeal of Paul Richardson largely boils down to what you think of Josh Doctson. He's the guy with the draft capital and the athletic pedigree. After a nothing rookie year, Doctson played every game last season and managed just 502 yards on 35 receptions. He caught a putrid 44.9% of his 78 targets. With Doctson ineffective, Terrelle Pryor gone, and Jordan Reed perennially injured, the Redskins needed to add a WR. Enter Paul Richardson. He's coming off the most productive season of his care[...]

What's up fantasy Jabronis?  I'm taking a stab at answering the biggest question of all: What is the meaning of life? Is there life on other planets? What does wearing pleated pants in today's age say about you? Nope. You'll have to ask el Camello or Raphstradamus about the pants.  But I am here to help you answer the ultimate question in fantasy, "Will RBs or WRs dominate 2018?" I LOVE Wide Receivers. I have always gone WR heavy early in drafts and was a major proponent of the ZeroRB metho[...]

This time we're looking at wide receivers who improved their stock or saw it plummet. Wide receiver scoring was down as a whole this season, which meant more fallers than usual. At the same time, some veteran receivers rebounded nicely and provided their fantasy owners with game-winning performances on a regular basis. As we gear up for the final game of the 2017 NFL season, Super Bowl[...]Keep on reading: Biggest WR Risers and Fallers - 2017 Year in Review
