Is a name-brand receiver still worth RB1 prices?

WaiverWizard Junior Member #1 · Original post · Fri, 04 September 2026 15:13 Is a name-brand receiver still worth RB1 prices? A manager offered me a famous veteran receiver for my steady young running back. The receiver still earns targets, but his average depth has collapsed and his offense spreads red-zone looks around. The running back is not exciting, yet he owns goal-line work and catches three passes most weeks. In a half-PPR league, are you buying the rebound or keeping the boring weekly floor? 2 👍 13 🔥 8 💯 1 Reply Quote ShareCopied! Sponsored ADGrow your business with our fans — advertise with us.
