Kayshon Boutte, WR, New England Patriots

Third-year receiver Kayshon Boutte followed up a stellar Week 1 with one catch for 16 yards in Week 2, but was saved by the fact that his one catch came in the end zone. Having been picked up on waivers in many leagues after the season opener, he’ll potentially have been dropped again following Week 3.

Boutte caught two of his three targets for 28 yards, but the stats won’t show that he was again targeted in the end zone and missed out on another catch because of a penalty. The receiver has emerged as a key target for Drake Maye and is worth a shot at what should be a very reasonable price.

Marvin Mims, WR, Denver Broncos

Marvin Mims has had a quiet start to the season, but his four targets in Week 3 should have yielded far better results. Mims was overthrown by his quarterback on multiple occasions, denying him a massive yards total and at least one touchdown.

The electric receiver is never more than one play away from fantasy gold, and the team made a significant effort to utilize his speed against the Chargers. Broncos receivers can be volatile in fantasy, with Sean Payton regularly mixing things up, but Mims has remained a trusted weapon in Denver.

The third-year receiver isn’t a plug-and-play option, but he’ll be pretty cheap in deeper leagues and may even be on waivers in others. He carries immense upside and could easily become a weekly must-start this season if the Broncos’ offense improves.
