Martavis Bryant confidence level

WHen are we starting this guy with confidence? He's been Big Ben's first look in the redzone for 3 weeks in a row. They play NYJ this week. Anyone think he's good for a TD and 30-40yrds?

Always depends on other options.

I've thinking the same thing, but since his (Bryant's) TD's are typically while the game is still close, makes me wonder if he is what Wheaton was projected. I intentionally watched the whole Pitt game, and Bryant was Ben's top red zone target. I dont think it's farfetched that Ben throws 2-3 TD's a game, and since he always goes away from the run in the redzone, Bryants value should go up?
I dont want to be in week 12 and waiting for that bust game

I started him this past week because of Bye weeks. Ill do it again this week. If he performs again this week like he has been I may Keep starting him over Garcon.

I am in a similar boat this week.
Luck and Bradshaw on bye, Dez has shaky QB situation, and I grabbed Bryant in FA. Rolling with Orton and no defense bc I am playing the worst player in the league (1-8) and really just need 10pts out of Bryant.

Only thing that makes me nervous is wheaton still involved.

same here. But Wheatons value has really only risen with the addition of Bryant. Wheaton was trash before and has only started getting it the past couple of weeks. I might give it one more week before rolling with Bryant.

He is just like most other WRs in that tier, could have a great game or a dud. I think he will continue to produce b/c teams will have to double team Antonio Brown.

I like Bryant to have a shot to score this week. I think he pulls in a 9+ fantasy wise.

Bryant's value is extremely TD dependent which isn't a great thing going forward. While Wheaton and Bryant are completely different players (Wheaton isn't a threat to steal RZ targets), Wheaton will get some snaps and will cut down on the overall targets for Bryant limiting his potential for being less TD dependent.
If Bryant can prove to be more consistent in his targets/catches/yardage outside of his TD production, you will be able to start him with more confidence.
The one thing he has going for him is that the Steelers just forget about running the ball in the RZ and especially inside the 10. I'm not sure there is a team in football that throws more in the RZ than the Steelers (maybe the Colts). For a TD dependent WR, there might be no better situation in football.

I'll be starting him until his Week 12 BYE (NYJ, TEN in that span). Gordon will have to do after that...

Y'all are crazy. Start him this week with confidence. The jets pass defense is terrible. They have given up like 22 WR scores so far this year, Big Ben has 12 TDs in his last 2 games(I know that's not sustainable), and the guy is a physical freak 6'4 230 4.4 40. I have Antonio brown, mohamad sanu, Michael Floyd, Kendal wright,josh gordon, and martavis Bryant. I'm starting brown, Bryant and Sanu this week. I think he's a great flex option. He'll give you 10 pts with a potential for 20 or more.

Ben slinging 4 tds against the jets and that's his floor. Id start Bryant expecting 8-12 points

I picked him up in a dynasty league but he won't be seeing my starting lineup this year

There are plenty better options out there but he and OBJ are in the same category right now imo

Not even close. OBJ is developing into the #1 option for the Giants. He's the best offensive player they have. Had 11 targets this past game. Bryant had 5.
I like Bryant's upside but Brown is playing out of his mind right now.

That was one game in garbage time. In my league Bryant has already outscored OBJ with one less game. They are both wr3
