Why

  • Josh Downs is WR23 on our rest of season ranking: 11.7 projected PPR points a game over his 10 games left through Week 17, 2.5 a game above a replacement WR (9.2).
  • Week 7: @ MIN, not projected yet. That defense allows the 29th most fantasy points to his position.
  • His target share held at 21% in Week 6 (21% before it).
  • Across Sleeper leagues he was dropped 62,395 times in the busiest 24 hours we measured this week.

Rest of season figures are projected PPR points a game from Week 7 through Week 17, measured against a replacement level starter at his position. Shares compare his last game with his games before it.

Who to add instead

If you need the spot, the best add at his position is Malik Washington (MIA) instead, 9.5 projected PPR points a game rest of season. He drew 307,384 adds in his busiest 24 hours this waiver cycle.
