CHI WR Taylor Gabriel - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Miami Dolphins

Taylor Gabriel had a big game in Chicago's last outing, hauling in all seven of his targets for 104 yards and two touchdowns. He now has at least seven targets in three straight games as he's become a reliable short-range option outside of Allen Robinson.

Perhaps in a tough matchup against the Dolphins, Chicago could use a similar strategy as Week 4 when they went to a more short game. Gabriel can be viewed as a lower-end WR3 choice this week vs. the Dolphins.

CHI WR Taylor Gabriel - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Taylor Gabriel surprisingly led the team in targets (10) and receptions (6) last week, but only finished with 34 yards. He's actually not far off from Allen Robinson in terms of targets (22 to 28) and receptions (15 to 17) on the season, but he's struggling to get yards. The speedster is averaging just 5.9 yards per reception. And he has yet to score a touchdown this season.

He gets a favorable matchup this week against the Bucs, but Gabriel hasn't really shown much to be worthy of fantasy consideration. Until he can make more of his targets and catches, he's best to ignore for now.

CHI WR Taylor Gabriel - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Arizona Cardinals

So far this season, Taylor Gabriel has been the Bears' second WR threat. He's second on the team in targets and receptions and third in yards. He's also on the field more often (95 percent of snaps in Week 2) than rookie Anthony Miller (56 percent of snaps in Week 2).

But the production has been pretty minimal, so he's mostly off the fantasy radar for now.

CHI WR Taylor Gabriel - 2018 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

Taylor Gabriel has made some highlight plays in his small NFL career with the Browns and Falcons. As a speedster, Gabriel caught attention in 2016 with Atlanta, averaging 16.5 yards per catch and finishing the year with six receiving touchdowns and one rushing score. He comes to Chicago in 2018, where he’s been listed as a starter in the Bears offense under new coach Matt Nagy.

Fantasy Downside

While Gabriel has appeared on the fantasy radar a few times in his career, he’s never been able to maintain a role. He’s never had over 600 receiving yards in a single season, and most of his production has either been big play or bust, and it’s mostly been bust. Outside of 2016, he’s never had more than one score in a season.

2018 Bottom Line

Taylor Gabriel is interesting as a starter in what should be an improved offense, but he needs to prove his worth before you go drafting him.

ATL WR Taylor Gabriel - Wild Card Round Fantasy Football Outlook

Wild Card Round at Los Angeles Rams

Taylor Gabriel was not listed on the Falcons' final injury report for Saturday night's Wild Card matchup against the Rams. He injured his hamstring in the Falcons' Week 17 win over the Panthers but got in a limited practice session this week and apparently is ready to roll. After carving out a nice role for himself as a deep threat in Kyle Shanahan's offense last year, Gabriel has been lost in the shuffle this season after Steve Sarkisian took over as Atlanta's OC. Avoid Gabriel in your DFS and playoff leagues this weekend. The volume simply isn't there.

ATL WR Taylor Gabriel - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Miami Dolphins

Taylor Gabriel was held without a catch in the Falcons' Week 4 loss to the Bills. The fact he didn't get on the stat sheet was rather surprising considering both Julio Jones (hip flexor) and Mohamed Sanu (hamstring) left the game in the second and third quarters, respectively. Still, with Sanu expected to miss Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Gabriel is a sneaky flex play. With Miami forced to pay extra attention to Jones, Gabriel could get loose in the Dolphins shaky secondary. Ranked as our WR26 for Week 6, view Gabriel as a legitimate WR3/FLEX play for Sunday.

ATL WR Taylor Gabriel - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Buffalo Bills

Taylor Gabriel caught 5-of-6 targets for 79 yards and 1 touchdown in the Falcons' Week 3 win over the Lions. His touchdown came on a screen pass that he took 40 yards to the house in the second half. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, big days like the one he had last Sunday are difficult to project. Ranked as our WR51 for Week 4, avoid Gabriel for Atlanta's matchup with Buffalo this weekend.
