Scouting report

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Tennessee
After double-digit targets two of the first three games, Cole Beasley has four in the past two games that have produced just three receptions for 21 yards. This doesn't mean he is out of the picture, but it means he is clearly fourth or maybe even fifth in the pecking order of where QB Josh Allen is looking.

His fantasy stock has taken a dip after it rose early in the season. He still gives good depth and we could see his numbers go back up, but for Week 6 keep him on the bench against Tennessee despite a very good matchup against a bad Titans pass defense.

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Kansas City
Cole Beasley only had two targets last week for two catches. It was disappointing considering he had 11 targets the week before. Unlike the other Buffalo receivers, Beasley has been all over the place with his use and production which makes him a little more unreliable in fantasy.

Beasley has a great matchup against the Chiefs who are ranked 28th in aFPA. However, it's hard to say what we will see from him week-to-week.

Keep Beasley on the bench in standard leagues and even PPR leagues he is a reach for Week 5.

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Houston
Cole Beasley for the second time this season led the Bills in targets with 13. It produced his best numbers with 11 receptions for 98 yards, also team-highs last Sunday. The only downside is Beasley is looking for his first touchdown, but he is killing it in PPR leagues.

Beasley faces an average Houston pass defense at home. We expect similar success for the Buffalo passing game. Although Beasley has been putting up great numbers, it might be hit (Week 1 and Week 3) or miss (Week 2). Start him for Week 4 as a solid WR3 or Flex as he might get 13 targets but 8 to 10 should be the norm.

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Washington
Cole Beasley was targeted 13 times in the opener but that fell to four in Week 2. For the season, he has nine receptions for 96 yards and zero touchdowns. So, even though QB Josh Allen has been looking Beasley's way, the production hasn't been there.

Beasley will have a tough matchup against Washington. Buffalo has spread the ball around so this takes away from some of the receivers' value and for Week 3 and playing a very good defense, keep Beasley on the bench.

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at New England
Cole Beasley has had double-digit targets in four of the last five games. This week's 10 targets produced eight catches for 112 yards. That makes three 100-yard receiving yard games in the last five weeks. Beasley has been very good for the most part although there are still stinkers every once in a while.

Next up is the Patriots who are ranked 2nd in aFPA to wide receivers. In the first meeting this season, Beasley had two catches for 24 yards.

The tough matchup dictates Beasley to be a WR3 or flex for Week 16. Buffalo is playing really well but still hasn't quite solved the Patriots just yet and New England's defense should still give the Bills some issues.

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Denver
Cole Beasley had five receptions for 41 yards last Sunday, after putting up 130 receiving yards the week before. The targets were there as he now has double-digit targets in three of the last four games.

It will be a tough matchup for Beasley against Denver who is ranked first in aFPA to wide receivers. However, Beasley is getting plenty of looks in the slot no matter who the opponent is.

Start Beasley as a low-end WR3 or flex in PPR leagues. He continues to get the targets and the catches follow. However, sit him in standard leagues for Week 15.

BUF WR Cole Beasley - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Pittsburgh
Cole Beasley had double-digit targets for the second time in the last three weeks. The amazing part is he still is not even the most targetted receiver, so QB Josh Allen really likes Beasley and Stefon Diggs as his primary targets in the passing game. Beasley also had a season-high 130 yards and his fourth touchdown reception.

Beasley faces Pittsburgh on Sunday night. The Steelers are 15th in aFPA to wide receivers. There should be some opportunities, but the downside of Beasley has been consistency. One game can be like last week and the next he disappears.

For that reason, we recommend Beasley should remain on the bench for standard leagues in Week 14, but can be used as a WR3 or flex in PPR leagues.
