WEEK 8 BUY, SELL, HOLD WIDE RECIEVERS



BUY

Kelvin Benjamin-  The kid is a touchdown machine, he has 5 TDs after 34 receptions.  He averages a TD every 7 receptions, that's remarkable.  Cam Newton has 2 options in this offense, Benjamin and Olsen, there is honestly NO OTHER OPTIONS.  Carolina cant run the ball, their formula going forward is simple: Newton throw to Benjamin/ Olsen or run it yourself.  The biggest bonus with having Benjamin is his upcoming schedule : Seattle (lone ugly one) New Orleans, @Philly, Atlanta, BYE, @Minnesota, @New Orleans, Tampa, Cleveland.  You cant hand select an easier schedule.  I would pay up for the kid, pay a WR2 price for someone who I believe will put up WR1 numbers for the rest of the season. 


Draft Demon prediction:  Kelvin Benjamin finishes the season with 12 + touchdowns




SELL



Steve Smith Sr-  Steve Smith has probably been the best 14th round draft pick of the year.  He racked up 400 + yards and 3 touchdowns in his first 4 games this season.  If you saw that coming, you are a liar.  Steve Smith still has a lot of value today, but its starting to drop slightly.  Trade him now before it dips any lower.  It could nose dive.  His targets have gone from 10, 7, 6, to 5 this past weekend.  Torrey Smiths targets and production has gone up, as has Owen Daniels.  I'm not saying he is worthless or drop-able, its just a sell high situation while you can.  The Ravens remaining schedule is less than awesome as well;  @Cinci, @Pittsburgh, Tennesse, Bye, @New Orleans, San Diego, @Miami, Jax, @Houston


Draft Demon prediction:  Steve Smith SR rides your bench during the playoffs




Hold



Antonio Brown - I'm not trading him for anybody.  I want him over Demarius Thomas, Megatron, Jordy Nelson, and Julio Jones for one simple reason: CONSISTENCY .  50 receptions, 700 PLUS Yards and 5 Tds, best in the NFL numbers, but what amazes me is how equally spread his production has come from.  He has not had less than 90 yards receiving in any game thus far this year, he has not had any more than 131.  The above mentioned gang all have had a few games with less than stellar numbers.  I like to put a guy in my lineup who I can feel 100% safe with knowing what his production is going to be.  Brown is that guy.  Don't trade him


Draft Demon prediction:  Antonio Brown ends this season as the #1 ranked WR
