NO WR Willie Snead - Week 8, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Seattle
Willie Snead caught nine-of-11 targets for 87 yards in the Saints Week 7 loss to the Chiefs. After averaging just 41.3 yards per game over his previous three contests, it was a solid performance for the second-year receiver. The targets were a season-high and the yardage was his second most this year, behind his nine-catch, 172-yard performance against Oakland in Week 1.

Snead remains a risky WR3 moving forward. Rookie Michael Thomas has proven to be a reliable target for Drew Brees and Brandin Cooks continues to be the team's No. 1 receiver. Snead ranks as our WR30 for Week 8 and faces Seattle's No. 4-ranked defense versus receivers. Again, Snead will be a risky FLEX/WR3 option for Sunday.

NO WR Willie Snead - Week 7, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Kansas City Chiefs
Willie Snead caught 4-of-7 targets for 47 yards in the Saints Week 6 win over the Panthers. His seven targets were second-most to Brandin Cooks' nine, but he did significant less with his targets than both Cooks and rookie Michael Thomas. The Saints travel to Kansas City this weekend to take on a Chiefs team that is fantasy's No. 17 defense versus wide receivers. Ranked as our WR46 for Week 7, view Snead as a WR4 only.

NO WR Willie Snead - Week 6, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Carolina
Willie Snead caught just one pass for 23 yards in the Saints Week 4 win over the Chargers. It was the only target he saw despite playing on 49-of-73 offensive snaps in his return from a toe injury. Earlier this week Snead said he feels “close to 95 percent” and noted that he was closer to 80-85 percent in San Diego two weeks ago. Ranked as our WR25 for Week 6, view Snead as a decent FLEX play against the Panthers, who allowed big plays to Julio Jones two weeks ago.

NO WR Willie Snead - Week 4, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at San Diego
Willie Snead was inactive for the Saints' loss to the Falcons on Monday night due to a toe injury. He remained limited in practice on Thursday but is on track to return this Sunday when the Saints visit the Chargers in San Diego. Assuming he plays, Snead will be nothing more than a WR4 with the Saints on the road (where Sean Payton's offense has been significantly less explosive) and with Drew Brees becoming increasingly more comfortable throwing to tight end Coby Fleener. Snead ranks as our WR32 for Week 4.

NO WR Willie Snead - Week 3, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Atlanta
Willie Snead caught five passes for 54 yards and a touchdown on his eight targets last Sunday when the Saints fell to the Giants in Week 2. Coming off a 9-173-1 performance in Week 1, Snead rewarded fantasy owners that rolled the dice on him in Week 2 by catching a 17-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter. The second-year wideout held off rookie Michael Thomas in preseason for New Orleans' No. 2 receiver position opposite Brandin Cooks and clearly has chemistry with QB Drew Brees. Ranked as our WR19 for the Saints' Week 3 game against the Falcons on Monday night, view Snead as a low-end WR2 for this week.

NO WR Willie Snead - Week 2, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at New York Giants
Willie Snead had a fantastic start to the 2016 season, catching all nine of his targets for 172 yards and a touchdown in the Saints Week 1 loss to the Raiders. The targets were tied with Brandin Cooks for most on the team and the receptions and yardage also led the Saints in Week 1. Snead's lone touchdown came on a fourth-and-one from the goal line in which he snagged Drew Brees' pass in traffic.

It's possible Snead's Week 1 production won't be matched all season, but he's definitely on the WR3 radar moving forward. Ranked as our WR32 for Week 2, view Snead as a FLEX option against the Giants 22nd-ranked fantasy pass defense.

NO WR Willie Snead - Week 1, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Oakland
As a rookie in 2015, Willie Snead was targeted 102, catching 69 passes for 974 yards and three touchdowns. The Saints signed tight end Coby Fleener and drafted Michael Thomas in the second round, so Snead could take a backseat in the passing game at some point this season. That said, Snead didn't relinquish his role in the Sean Payton's offense this preseason and remains the Saints No. 2 wide receiver behind Brandin Cooks. Ranked as our WR32, Snead is a low-end WR3 for Week 1, but has a tough match up versus the Raiders.
