NO WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs Atlanta Falcons

Marquez Valdes-Scantling is right on the fringe of the flex conversation this week. Ideally, you have better options on your roster.

We have Valdes-Scantling as WR50. He has performed valiantly over the past few weeks but it's hard to feel confident about his ceiling - or his floor, for that matter - with Jake Haener under center.

NO WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at New York Giants

Marquez Valdes-Scantling is our WR34 this weekend. He has four touchdowns on his seven receptions in the last three games. His volume doesn't allow his ranking to go much higher than it is right now but his efficiency makes him a tempting choice.

He's a fine WR3/flex option but hopefully you have safer floors throughout the rest of your roster.

NO WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs Los Angeles Rams

Marquez Valdes-Scantling is our WR34 this week. Insert the "he can't keep getting away with this" Breaking Bad gif.

Valdes-Scantling has 196 receiving yards and three touchdowns over the last two weeks, which sounds amazing until you dive in. He's put those numbers together on just 7 total targets in that span, though. Valdes-Scantling is a low-end WR3 with upside.

NO WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs Cleveland Browns

Marquez Valdes-Scantling is hovering around flex territory in our rankings. At WR43, you aren't super excited to plug him in but if necessary you can.

Valdes-Scantling hauled in all three of his targets for 109 yards and two touchdowns last week. We aren't expecting that efficiency to continue but that's serious upside for a pass catcher in this range.

KC WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Jacksonville Jaguars

Marquez Valdes-Scantling had the second-highest playing time amongst Chiefs WRs in Week 2, playing on 63% of the offensive snaps. He didn't do a whole lot, though, finishing with just two catches for 48 yards on two targets. The highlight was a 34-yard catch. MVS will continue to be a boom-or-bust option at WR in Week 2. He should be viewed in WR4-WR5 range.

KC WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Detroit Lions

Marquez Valdes-Scantling was OK in his first season with the Chiefs last year, finishing with 42 receptions for 687 yards and two touchdowns. As expected, though, he was pretty much a hit-or-miss player given his speed. Sometimes he was able to breakout for a big catch, but other times he was barely used. He finished under 30 receiving yards in nine games last year. Even though JuJu Smith-Schuster and Mecole Hardman left in the offseason, we'd expect MVS's role to remain the same this year. He does get a good matchup in Week 1 vs. the Lions, but MVS should be viewed as a boom-or-bust WR4/WR5 option to start the year.

KC WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Denver Broncos

Marquez Valdes-Scantling finished with a goose egg last week on two targets. As we've written about every week, MVS is a very boom-or-bust type of player with one reception or less in five of his last 10 games. And lately he's been more of a bust with 46 total yards in his last three games. And one of those games was against the Broncos, his opponent this week. In MVS's earlier game against Denver, he finished with one catch for 20 yards. MVS will continue to be a hit-or-miss WR5 play for Week 17.
