Kyle Orton, Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods' Post-Week 8 Fanasy Reaction

Rob GoldbergOct 26, 2014

It did not take a lot of plays for the Buffalo Bills to have a bid day with the passing game.  

A bunch of turnovers from the New York Jets offense put Kyle Orton and company in great field position the entire game. This led to a strong day from him and a few of his key receivers:

Sammy Watkins had one notable play early in the game that featured both the good and bad of what he can do. He got open for a catch-and-run of 84 yards, but it could have been even more if he did not start celebrating before scoring.

Click on the video below to catch Watkins' gaffe (0:27 mark):

His second long catch went much better as he was able to take it all the way into the end zone.

Still, he showed once again that he is already one of the most dynamic receivers in the NFL. Although he might be a bit inconsistent like most rookies, he is the go-to option on this team and will always have the opportunity for a big game.

Unless you have a really strong team, he should probably be in your fantasy football lineup every week from here on out.

Meanwhile, Robert Woods dealt with a back injury that kept him out for a decent portion of the game. However, he was able to return, as Chris Trapasso of NFL.com noted:

The receiver made one big catch for the team's first touchdown and caught another long passes later, helping him post solid numbers despite the injury. He has now scored twice in the last three games as he remains a decent complement to Watkins.

Unfortunately, this is still not enough to help out most fantasy teams. He has had games where Orton will look his way plenty of times, but other games he is invisible, which is what he should be in fantasy football outside of the deepest of leagues.

Orton has a little bit more appeal as a fantasy player with three multi-touchdown games in a row. The four-touchdown game was his first since 2010 when he played for the Denver Broncos.

The problem is that the team goes on a bye next week before facing the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins. He might be a decent fill-in start, but there are likely more trustworthy options with better matchups available.
