Josh Doctson, WR, Washington Redskins

Yahoo! Ownership: 9%

Despite not living up to his high first-round pick cost in the 2016 NFL Draft, Josh Doctson has become a productive fantasy option.

Over his last four games, he has seen at least 5 targets while averaging 3.5 catches and 35.5 yards per game. Not overwhelming stats but a steady floor. Last week, he added to his floor by scoring his first touchdown of the season. With his role expected to expand with Paul Richardson out for the year, Week 10 could be the breakout game for Doctson.

While Doctson has already been on the field on a consistent basis -- over 82% of offensive snaps the last four weeks -- he can expect a boost in targets now that Richardson and his 13.3% target share needs to be replaced. Seeing extra looks this Sunday could be a boon for Doctson as he faces a weak Bucs secondary.

Tampa Bay has allowed the third-most passing yards per game (307), while opposing quarterbacks have tossed the most touchdowns against them (22). Wide receivers have naturally found fantasy success against the Bucs, scoring the second-most PPR points versus them this season.
