Scouting report

MIA WR Jarvis Landry - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Tennessee Titans

Despite a putrid offense that has looked bad against the Jets and Saints (of all teams), Jarvis Landry is still WR19 in PPR on a per game basis. He gets the best matchup possible this week against a Titans defense ranked 32nd in our aFPA vs. PPR WR rankings. Landry is averaging 8 receptions per game, keeping him on the WR2 radar for Week 5 in all formats.

MIA WR Jarvis Landry - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. New Orleans Saints (game in London)

The Saints have allowed the 10th-most points to opposing WRs (PPR). Jarvis Landry has 26 targets in two weeks. That's juicy, except Landry is only averaging 6.6 yards per reception. That'd be great if he was a running back. Like most weeks, Landry is a WR2 in PPR leagues and not much more than a FLEX consideration in standard leagues, as he struggles to find the end zone.

MIA WR Jarvis Landry - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at New York Jets

The Dolphins have a top-10 implied team total this week as they play the lowly Jets on the road. The Jets have allowed 4 touchdowns in two weeks to fantasy wideouts, and Landry was uber-Landry in Week 2 with 13 receptions for only 78 yards. However, he was anti-Landry in his last game against the Jets with 3 receptions for 108 yards and a touchdown. Either way, Landry should be in lineups, regardless of scoring format.

MIA WR Jarvis Landry - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Los Angeles Chargers

Jarvis Landry will always be a better PPR option than standard league option, but there's more concern now that Jay Cutler will not feed him as much as Ryan Tannehill did, as Cutler has been more likely to throw downfield. Landry is a low-end WR2 option in PPR leagues but only a FLEX option in standard leagues. The Chargers are top-10 in our aFPA vs. PPR WRs. Landry had 6 receptions for 53 yards against the Chargers last year.

Week 1 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
This game has been postponed due to Hurricane Irma and will now be played Week 11. Make sure you do not have any Dolphins or Bucs in your Week 1 fantasy lineups.

MIA WR Jarvis Landry - 2017 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

Jarvis Landry saw 34 fewer targets in 2016 with Adam Gase as head coach but better efficiency maintained his status as a WR2 in fantasy. That efficiency also made him one of the more consistent receivers week-to-week, with 12 double-digit scoring weeks in PPR. Overall, he was 15th among WRs with 14.3 PPR fantasy points per game.

Fantasy Downside

Landry continues to not be a big touchdown threat in fantasy, failing to reach more than five touchdowns in each of his first three seasons. His nine red zone targets led the team but were 104th in the NFL, indicating two things we've also heard from Dolphins coaches this offseason. They want to rely on the run game and they didn't run enough plays in 2017. In fact, they were last in the league in plays run. If Landry regresses to his 2015 efficiency, his WR2 status is in trouble. Miami has also indicated no contract extension is coming for Landry, meaning he's not a top priority.

2017 Bottom Line

It's hard to see much upside in Landry's 2017 ceiling. His mid-to-late round three ADP is fair, given his recent fantasy finishes, but doesn't account for the potential downside. A quick glance at 4for4's rankings unveils other options with later ADPs that are better or similar options to Landry.

MIA WR Jarvis Landry - Week 18, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Wild Card Round at Pittsburgh
Landry posted seven receptions for 91 yards Week 6 against the Steelers, and with Matt Moore at quarterback this time, there's little reason to believe Landry can't match that again. Landry has 18 targets the past two weeks, but 4for4's IDP expert Mike Woellert does have this warning: "William Gay has been solid from the slot and will draw Jarvis Landry in coverage. Gay has played roughly 75 percent of his snaps from the slot and has allowed just 0.18 points per route. Landry has been efficient, producing 0.43 points per route, but has a tough road matchup this week." For these reasons, consider Landry less likely to score a touchdown this week than other WR options.
