The playoffs are here and a number of wide receivers have stepped forward to make their case as the best fantasy football wide out come playoff time. There are the natural names on the list but there are also a number of receivers that were left for dead in the fantasy football drafts this year who have resurrected to become must-start fantasy football contributors.
Here are the Top 30 wide receiver rankings for Week 15 of the 2010 fantasy football season.
1 Andre Johnson – When it comes to fantasy football starting wide receivers, there is Andre Johnson and then there is everyone else. Johnson always steps up in divisional play and Tennessee will not stop him.
2 Reggie Wayne – When Peyton Manning came back to life in Week 14, Reggie Wayne followed. He leads the NFL in targets (150) and is second in receptions (94). Jacksonville made Oakland look like they actually had a passing offense last week, so Indy should have no problems.
3 Roddy White – Who would have picked Roddy White to lead the NFL in receptions coming into the fantasy football playoffs. In PPR leagues this guy is the best and in all others he is simply great.
4 Calvin Johnson – Megatron suffers from playing with a third string quarterback and only caught one pass in Week 14. The guy is a monster though, and you cannot bench him now.
5 Marques Colston – While Lance Moore has been getting more publicity recently in New Orleans, Marques is still The Man there. He scored twice in Week 14 and gets a shaky Baltimore secondary in Week 15.
6 DeSean Jackson – DeSean Jackson finally had his breakout game against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14, gaining over 200 yards of receiving yards. His next victim is the New York Giants.
7 Hakeem Nicks – While Steve Smith’s injury hurts the Giants as a team, it will help Hakeem Nicks who will see more targets. The Giants are also turning to a two-headed rushing monster meaning Nicks will get more one-on-one coverage against Phily.
8 Terrell Owens – Uh oh, TO is back. After playing the good boy most the season, and having a rebound year, he was back to complaining about his quarterback in Week 14. Last time he played the Browns, he caught ten receptions for 222 yards, so let’s hope he and Carson Palmer are on the same page.
9 Wes Welker – This is not the same Wes Welker we saw before his horrible injury last year but he is still one of the best in the league. With Deion Branch improving weekly, Welker is getting more looks. In PPR leagues, he has broke 20 fantasy football points three weeks in a row.
10 Greg Jennings – This is an iffy pick. If Aaron Rodgers returns, this is a no-brainer. If he does not return, Matt Flynn has to throw to somebody. He was a monster before Rodgers injury.
