Fantasy Football Sit ‘Em: Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (Charles Trainor Jr./Miami Herald/TNS via Getty Images) /

SIT ‘EM – WR

59. . Wide Receiver. Dolphins. Albert Wilson. 3. player

Albert Wilson went off last week in an overtime victory over Chicago, totaling 33 points in ESPN leagues. Thirty-three points! That’s insane.

While fantasy footballers probably scurried to get Wilson on their teams if he hadn’t been claimed already, don’t be in such a hurry to throw him into your starting lineup. Prior to last week’s win over the Bears, Wilson hadn’t been all that effective, totaling less than ten points in weeks four and five.

Things aren’t lining up for Wilson to follow up that success from a week ago, as A) He still has Brock Osweiler as his quarterback and B) the Lions have been solid against receivers lined out wide, per Michael Fabiano of NFL.com.

Some might think Osweiler starting again this week is good for Wilson, but we all know what Osweiler is as a starter. He’s not reliable, so don’t trust him to help Wilson have a good game.
