Cole Beasley, WR, Dallas Cowboys

ESPN Ownership: 40%
Yahoo Ownership: 40%

Cole Beasley continues to be a steady force for the Dallas Cowboys and fantasy owners alike, topping double-digit fantasy points (ESPN PPR Scoring) for the fifth consecutive week. He easily leads Dallas' receivers in targets with 6.6 per game, and his carved out a role for himself that appears to make him independent to both game script and Dez Bryant's health.

Things continue to look up for Beasley in Week 6, as the Cowboys draw a matchup against the Packers, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points (standard scoring) to receivers per game this season. Their top corner, Sam Shields, has been out since Week 1, and with his long history of concussions, there's a realistic chance that he might not be able to rescue Green Bay's floundering secondary any time soon.

Going forward, Beasley needs to be owned in PPR leagues, and his matchup in Week 6 is juicy enough that he is worth a look in all formats.
