Is Russell Gage a viable flex now for PPR leagues?

1.5 PPR league. He didn't get as many targets or receptions as he did week 1, but he salvaged that by bringing in a touchdown. He was worth 24.9 points in week 1, and he earned 19.6 Sunday.

If he continues to attract 8-10 targets a game, he's got to be a viable flex.

Nice WR 3 going forward it looks like.

I could be wrong but I’m betting this doesn’t continue unless injury ahead of him.

I don't see them keeping this pace in the passing game. Cowboys defense is horrible IMO and the seahawks game.. well i got no answer for that. I do think they cool down though. The 1.5 PPR is the only reason I'm thinking about it. I also think Julio is really banged up (more then they are letting on)

Julio doesn’t usually get healthier as the season goes on unfortunately.

He needs to sit out and heal instead of trying to be a hero. He don’t look right

The Falcons defense is so bad that there will be plenty of garbage time opportunities for the offense. The defense is going to give up a historic point total. That's how they racked up so many yards against Seattle.

I have Calvin Ridley as my WR1. Starting him and Gage feels like it could blow up in my face.

With Julio not 100%, I think Ridley and Gage eat! ATL has no run game Or defense so Matt Ryan will be throwing the ball more than most QBs.
