Brian Hartline, WR, Cleveland Browns

Brian Hartline is shaping up as a fairly safe option in PPR leagues this weekend. I know, laugh it up. But seriously, Hartline has averaged 7.33 receptions and 78 receiving yards per game over his previous three contests. With the Browns wide receiving core decimated by injury, Hartline will be the healthiest wide receiver available against a San Francisco 49er's pass defense that is seventh in terms of our Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play metric.

Johnny Manziel will be taking over the reigns of the offense this weekend, which will bring some volatility into the equation, but he certainly can't be any worse than Austin Davis. The messy quarterback situation combined with a low over/under of 41 doesn't exactly scream "must-start", but the targets should be there for Hartline in this game against the weak 49er's pass defense. Expecting a touchdown may be a bit much, but five or six catches is well within reason.
