NYJ WR Jermaine Kearse - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Cleveland Browns

Jermaine Kearse still remains the most targeted receiver in the Jets lineup, although that did not turn into good fantasy results this past weekend. He caught 4 passes for 17 yards. QB Josh McCown seems to be spreading the ball around with five players receiving no less than 4 targets but no more than 7.

The Browns only rank 26th in aFPA to wide receivers, so it's a good matchup for Jets receivers. However, since nobody has really stood out as the top receiver, Kearse does not make the cut as a Week 5 starter. He's just on the outside of the WR3/flex tier.

NYJ WR Jermaine Kearse - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

Jermaine Kearse had season-low totals in targets (3) and catches (3) last week against Miami, despite the Jets having some success in the passing game. There is a still a good chance the reliable Kearse will be McCown's favorite target every week.

However, the Jaguars will be a tough test as they are ranked fifth in aFPA to wide receivers. Kearse has not had any big games yet and that is unlikely to happen in Week 4. Keep Kearse on the bench against Jacksonville.

NYJ WR Jermaine Kearse - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Miami Dolphins

The late acquisition of Jermaine Kearse has paid off for the Jets as he has emerged as their best receiver through the first two weeks. He has been targeted 15 times, recording 11 receptions for 123 yards and 2 touchdowns. This is impressive considering the Jets offense is not very good.

Kearse is a good waiver wire pickup if he is still a free agent. He had a decent run in Seattle where he was never the No. 1. It's a good matchup this week against Miami, who is 28th in aFPA to wide receivers.

However, the Jets' offense as a whole keeps coming up when you talk about the fantasy impact of the skill players. Picking up Kearse is a good idea for depth, but he should still remain on your bench for Week 3.

SEA WR Jermaine Kearse - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Jermaine Kearse was second on the Seahawks playing 71% of the snaps. He made a career-high 49 catches and started all 16 games for the first time in his career. His overall numbers have gotten better every year.

Fantasy Downside
The numbers Kearse put up last year might be his peak. Even if he is listed as the starter, Tyler Lockett is going to get more snaps and more touches this season. He already had superior numbers compared to Kearse in 2015.

2016 Bottom Line
Kearse will still be a part of the Seahawks offense, but not enough to be considered a legit fantasy option. He will be a good late-round pick and serve as depth on your roster. Remember that Lockett has much more value.

SEA WR Jermaine Kearse - Week 18, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 18 at Minnesota
Jermaine Kearse has limited value this week just because he is the No. 3 wide receiver. If Tyler Lockett can't play, Kearse moves up into the top-10 fantasy wide receiver list for Wild Card weekend. He still is capable of some numbers if he gets opportunities.

SEA WR Jermaine Kearse - Week 17, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Arizona
Jermaine Kearse is still capable of a big game like he had two weeks ago and he might get more of an opportunity if Tyler Lockett has to sit out with a concussion. For now, keep Kearse on the bench but if Lockett is out, Kearse can move into your lineup

SEA WR Jermaine Kearse - 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Jermaine Kearse is considered the Seahawks main deep threat and he also will see plenty of snaps. He is capable of a big game here and there.

Fantasy Downside
Kearse's numbers are just not consistent enough to make a fantasy impact. He caught 38 balls last year for only one touchdown. Seattle's offense doesn't help because they like to run the football and Jimmy Graham is now on the roster.

Bottom Line
Despite being the Seahaws No. 2 wide receiver, Kearse has little fantasy value. His numbers just don't get it done. He really shouldn't be on any fantasy rosters, even deep ones.
