Scouting report

NYJ WR Brandon Marshall - Week 2, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Indianoplis

Brandon Marshall had a decent debut as a New York Jet with six catches for 60 yards and a TD. He is definitely the No. 1 target in the passing game and will regularly be targeted around 10 times a game.

The Colts pass defense is pretty good and they shut down Bills No. 1 receiver Sammy Watkins last week (0 catches). They will probably pay a lot of attention to Marshall, but the veteran is used to that. Start Marshall for Week 2 as a solid WR2. He probably will be that most weeks with the quarterback situation the way it is in New York.

NYJ WR Brandon Marshall - Week 1, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs Browns
Brandon Marshall will start the year playing for his fourth NFL team, but we should still see the same great play and numbers out of him as we have in the past. The problem is the entire Jets offense is questionable, especially at QB. If every goes the right way for New York, we will eventually see very good numbers from Marshall, but for now, we rank him as a WR2 for Week 1.

NYJ WR Brandon Marshall - 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Big and athletic, Brandon Marshall is still a physical specimen at 30 years old. His numbers in Chicago were excellent, especially touchdowns where he had 31 over the past three seasons. His yards per catch has remained consistent and his overall fantasy numbers make him a good fantasy option. He will be the Jets No. 1 option in the passing game.

Fantasy Downside
Last season was the first since his rookie year that Marshall didn't have 1,000 yards receiving. He did miss three games, however, so that made all the difference. The bigger issue is the quarterback situation for the Jets. Ryan Fitzpatrick will get the ball downfield, but he will struggle at times to make plays, which could hurt Marshall's production.

Bottom Line
Marshall can still play. The issue is his fantasy value is downgraded by the Jets quarterback situation. His ADP is 56, but I wouldn't hesitate to take him a little higher. 80 catches and 8 TDs are very possible for Marshall and he makes for a solid WR2 for fantasy owners.

CHI WR Brandon Marshall - Week 14, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Brandon Marshall - Week 14 vs. Dallas Cowboys

Brandon Marshall is not having the type of season we're used to seeing out of him. He's finished with less than 50 yards eight times out of 12 games. His saving grace so far is the fact he's scored eight touchdowns (although four came in the first two games of the year).

Marshall's subpar season could continue this week in a tough matchup against Dallas. The Cowboys have only allowed eight scores to wideouts this season. Lately Dallas has been more favorable to wideouts, but they're still pretty stingy.

Marshall should be used as a WR2 option.

CHI WR Brandon Marshall - Week 13, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Brandon Marshall - Week 13 vs. Detroit Lions

Brandon Marshall's decline last week can easily be connected to the Bears' lack of passing. Jay Cutler only threw the ball 27 times, a season low, and completed just 17 passes (also a season low). In the end, Marshall finished with three receptions for 32 yards in what was expected to be a good matchup.

This week Marshall draws a difficult assignment. The Lions have been pretty tough against wideouts this season. They've only allowed 200 or more yards to WRs twice this season. They've also only allowed multiple touchdowns to wideouts once.

Marshall still holds value because of his high ceiling, but this week he'll be a mid-range WR2.

CHI WR Brandon Marshall - Week 12, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Brandon Marshall - Week 12 vs. Tampa Bay

Brandon Marshall appears to back. He had a bit of a slump during the season, but he now has two consecutive games with at least seven receptions, 90 yards and a touchdown. Even better is he’s been targeted 10 times in four consecutive games. He’s a major part of this high-powered offense.

This week he faces the Buccaneers who have allowed the second-most points to opposing wideouts this season. Receivers have caught a touchdown in all but three games against Tampa Bay.

If Marshall continues to get 10 targets a game like he’s been getting there’s no reason to expect a decline in production this week. He should be viewed as a WR1.

CHI WR Brandon Marshall - Week 11, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Brandon Marshall - Week 11 vs. Minnesota Vikings

Brandon Marshall returned to his usual self last week against the Packers. While the Bears struggled as a whole, Marshall reeled in eight receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown. He also had his third consecutive game with 10 targets.

Marshall will face a stingy Vikings' defense this week, but he has a good chance at a touchdown. The Vikings have allowed at least one touchdown to a receiver in all but three games this season.

Marshall should be viewed as a borderline WR1 or strong WR2, but his ankle injury suffered in garbage time last week needs to be monitored, and makes him a bit riskier than normal.
