Dollar Free Agents 2016 Week 15

By Matthew Cherrin
Matthew Cherrin Hunter Henry- TE- Chargers
Those of you in dynasty or keeper leagues should take a hard look at tight end Hunter Henry for the Chargers. While he still plays behind Antonio Gates, he’s been able to record 29 receptions for 398 yards and six touchdowns so far in 2016. He hasn’t had many targets in the last four weeks, but he still managed to grab three touchdowns in his last four games. If you are in a standard league, he may be someone you want to target if you are in desperate need of a tight. Pick him up for a dollar this week.

Dontrelle Inman- WR- Chargers
While it seems like quarterback Phillip Rivers has found a new favorite target every game for the Chargers after Keenan Allen went out with an injury in Week 2, wide out Dontrelle Inman seems to be Rivers’ preferred target as of late. In his last three games, Inman has 14 receptions for 239 yards and three scores. San Diego faces Oakland’s defense this Sunday, and the Raiders’ defense is ranked 27th in passing yards allowed this season. Pick up and start Inman this week for a dollar.

Taylor Gabriel- WR- Falcons
The former and undrafted Abilene Christian wide receiver is still available in too many leagues around the fantasy football world. With Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu missing last week’s game, Gabriel had three receptions for 82 yards and one score. In Gabriel’s last three games, he has 12 receptions for 201 yards and three touchdowns. Jones will most likely be back this week, but Sanu is still questionable and might have been passed on the depth chart by Gabriel regardless if he plays this week. The Falcons face the 49ers on Sunday, who has given up the 7th most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Pick up Gabriel for a buck today.

Kenneth Dixon- RB- Ravens
Raven’s running back Kenneth Dixon should already be on fantasy owner’s radar in keeper and dynasty leagues, but he may be someone you want to pick up in standard PPR leagues as well. Dixon seems to have surpassed Terrence West as the lead back for the Ravens in the last few weeks. Last week against the Patriots, Dixon out-touched West 19-6, and he also led the Ravens in targets. He recorded 11 rushes for 39 yards, and had eight receptions for 42 yards and one score. You might be able to get Dixon for a buck this week and start him against an Eagles’ defense that struggles on the road.

Rex Burkhead- RB- Bengals
After running back Giovani Bernard was placed on the IR with an ACL injury, Rex Burkhead has seen an increased workload in the last few weeks. He still plays behind Jeremy Hill, but last week against the Browns he recorded nine rush attempts for 45 yards. The Bengals face the Steelers this week, whose defense has given up the 6th most fantasy points to running backs this year. If you are in desperate need of a running back, you might want to pick up Burkhead for a buck this week and start him.

Joe Flacco- QB- Ravens
Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco seems to have finally found some consistently in the last few weeks. In the last two games, he’s thrown for over 300 yards in both games and has a total of six touchdowns. The Raven’s face the Eagles this Sunday, and the Eagles tend to give up a ton of yards when they play on the road in 2016. Pick up start Flacco this week if you are in
