DeAndre Hopkins, WR – KC

Just as I sit down to write this, Hopkins has been dealt to KC. Quite simply, this is a huge upgrade for the Chiefs WR room as Juju Smith-Schuster sits as the top option. Despite being 32, Hopkins has the ability to produce clutch games, but it’s all about staying healthy. He’s put up two such games this season with shaky QB play at best in Tennessee. If the lower leg soreness he dealt with in Week 7 is cleared up, D-Hop should see a nice boost in his fantasy value. Funny how these “about to be traded” WR’s develop these leg issues huh?
