Dynasty & Redraft: WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, Steelers

[Tin Cup 327]

Has pretty much turned into the  man lately.  3 catches for 3 yards so far tonight.  Lost his only decent reception to a penalty.

JuJu Smith-Schuster caught 7-of-10 targets for 28 yards in the Steelers' Week 13 loss to Washington. 

Smith-Schuster finished third on the team in targets and fifth on the team in receiving yards. His absurdly low average depth of targets caps his upside on nearly every look that he sees. Despite seeing six more targets than Chase Claypool, he recorded ten fewer yards. Pittsburgh's game versus the Bills projects to feature ample scoring so JuJu remains in play as a FLEX option to open the fantasy playoffs.

The depth at WR in Pittsburgh is suppressing his talent somewhat. That's good for teams looking to sign him a little cheaper. After Allen Robinson, Chris Godwin, and Golladay, if they become free agents, JuJu will be coveted, as a good #2 WR.

JuJu Smith-Schuster caught 3-of-6 targets for 15 yards in the Steelers' Week 15 loss to the Bengals.

JuJu was blown up for a six-yard loss and lost fumble in the first half, which was one of the Steelers' three first-half turnovers that put them in a 17-0 hole. Other than that, Smith-Schuster didn't impact the box score. He'll try to rebound as a WR3 for Week 16 against the Colts.

JuJu Smith-Schuster caught 13-of-19 targets for 157 yards and a touchdown in Pittsburgh's Wild Card loss to Cleveland.

Smith-Schuster's potential final year with the Steelers was impressive in the fact he totaled a career-high nine touchdowns, but lacked even a resemblance of a ceiling since he failed to eclipse 100 yards in any regular season game, finishing with a pathetic 8.6 yards per catch on 128 targets in the team's quick-to-pass scheme. Although he didn't flash any alpha traits in two campaigns without Antonio Brown, Smith-Schuster won't turn 25 until November and has still recorded 3,726 receiving yards through his first four years in the league. Given his age and skill set, he'll arguably command a four-year deal worth $16-18 million annually unless the Steelers begrudgingly franchise tag him ahead of free agency.
