Ja'Lynn Polk Has Been New England's Most Consistent Receiver
Published: Aug 12, 2024 at 08:43 PM
New England Patriots wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk has been impressive this offseason, and Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston said he's arguably been the team's best receiver during training camp. "Demario Douglas is the Patriots receiver who finds himself open more consistently than any other. But in terms of availability and on-field dependability, there's no Patriots pass-catcher who has been more consistent than Polk," Perry wrote. Polk was the No. 37 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft after posting 69 receptions for 1,159 yards and 10 total touchdowns while competing with star pass-catchers Rome Odunze and Jalen McMillan for targets in 2023. He could establish himself as the clear WR1 in New England, giving him at least flex appeal in deep formats. However, there's a chance none of the Patriots' pass-catchers have a ton of upside with veteran Jacoby Brissett or rookie Drake Maye under center. That said, the Washington product's ADP is outside the top 200 overall picks, so he's worth a late-round dart throw for deep-league fantasy managers.
