Aaron Dobson

Week 7 vs New York Jets
Dobson has been active the last two game days, which is a positive. He has only played between 10-15% of snaps in each week, though. He is not startable, and barely rosterable, until that changes.

Week 5 at Cincinnati
Apparently Dobson's surprise inactives the last two weeks can be blamed on mouthing off to a coach in practice. I can't help but wonder if this was a one time isolated event, or if there was some tension and attitude leading up to the event we've now heard about. Beat writers have described Dobson as very quiet, and have joked about how out of character this event would seem for him. This might point to a locker room and practice field where tensions are understandably running rather high. We don't know the whole story here, but it is interesting to finally get a reason for his inactive status of late.

All this makes for more conversation fodder, though, than fantasy relevant data. In fantasy, just leave Dobson on your bench, if not the waiver wire, until we see some actual production from him in 2014.

Week 3 vs Oakland
Dobson had two targets in week two, catching one of them for 13 yards. It was encouraging to see him play on nearly 50% of the offensive snaps, though.

We still await Dobson coming into fantasy relevance this year, but it seems likely it will happen at some point. Our ranks this week of WR67 and WR71 in PPR express that we'd much rather keep Dobson on our bench as an upside stash, than start him in Week 3.
