Clive Walford catches all four targets in Week 13.

Teammate Jared Cook was a good target going into the game, as the Giants are very poor at stopping opposing tight ends, but it was Walford that had the solid game in a Raiders win. Walford caught all four targets, gaining 57 yards in the game. Walford had been a good contributor to the Raiders in his first two seasons in the league, and he’s someone that might step up for them down the stretch here as they try to make a push for the playoffs.

Seth Roberts caught five passes for 46 yards in Sunday’s win over the Giants.

Roberts had a bigger role with Michael Crabtree (suspension) and Amari Cooper (concussion, ankle) out, and he was a reliable target for Derek Carr. He will continue to have a role when Crabtree and Cooper return, but Roberts won’t be a recommended fantasy option down the stretch.

Johnny Holton scores in Week 13 win.

Holton caught three passes for 39 yards, including a nine-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. He also lost a fumble, but it was a quality game for the deep threat. Fantasy owners can ignore him with Michael Crabtree and hopefully Amari Cooper set to return in Week 14.

Cordarrelle Patterson plays very well in Raiders’ win.

With Michael Crabtree (suspension) and Amari Cooper (concussion/ankle) both out, it allowed Patterson more opportunities on offense—and he took advantage. The dynamic playmaker had four receptions (on four targets) for 97 yards and two carries for one yard in the Week 13 victory over the Giants. Patterson’s long in the game was for 59 yards, as it came on a quick screen where he showed his elite ability with the ball in his hands. Oakland is wise to give Patterson opportunities to break huge plays on offense, but he’s difficult to trust in fantasy lineups.

Jared Cook held in check as Raiders top the Giants.

Cook had just one reception for nine yards, which is extremely disappointing in a cupcake matchup with the Giants. Clive Walford actually had a bigger day with Cook banged up a little bit in the win, and Cook looks like a risky play heading into the fantasy playoffs after two-straight sub-par performances. The Raiders face the Chiefs in a huge AFC West matchup in Week 14.

Jermaine Gresham caught two passes for 17 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Rams.

Gresham isn’t a fantasy option with Ricky Seals-Jones emerging. Keep him on the waiver wire for the fantasy playoffs.

Jalen Richard gets two touches in Week 13.

Richard had a four-yard carry and a five-yard reception versus the Giants. He’s a contributor to the Raiders, but Richard doesn’t get enough touches to have much fantasy value.
