Fantasy Football Wide Receivers – Number 3: Odell Beckham Jr.

2015 Stats: 90 REC 1,450 YDS 13 TDS

Odell Beckham Jr. is a god when it comes to catching the football. Watching Odell is like watching a movie with the way he can finesse a catch down the field. His catching ability far surpasses any other wide receiver in the league.

Owners should always get good numbers from OBJ, but the lingering question is can he be consistent in years moving forward? It is not too often that a wide receiver can come into the NFL and put up 1,300+ yards in each of their first three seasons, but then drop off.

The yards and the catches are glamorous, but the real fantasy points come from scoring in the end zone. Beckham is a great target him in every red zone situation and should be one of the  (if not THE) best players on your team.

Draft OBJ either in the first round (if in a larger league) or in the second round if you’re in a smaller league. You won’t regret it.
