Marquess Wilson, WR, Chicago Bears

Marquess Wilson ($3,000) is a name that's been completely irrelevant for fantasy purposes all season long, but he now has an opportunity to make people a lot of money. With Brandon Marshall now on injured reserve, Wilson steps right into his place and will be expected to perform. The former seventh-round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft has all the measurables in the world, standing at 6'4" and 207 pounds. Not to mention that he showed his explosive play-making ability last week against the Dallas Cowboys.

Had it not been for a Jay Cutler over-throw, Wilson would have walked into the end zone for a 50-plus yard touchdown.

On top of that, Wilson should also see volume as well. Cutler targeted Brandon Marshall just over eight times per game this year, which means that Wilson could get something similar to that if the five targets on in Week 14 is any indication.

What makes rostering Wilson even more intriguing is the matchup - the New Orleans Saints give up the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers. If we take it a step further and look at on-field matchups, fellow wide receiver Alshon Jeffrey is likely to draw Saints cornerback Keenan Lewis, who is one of the better corners in the league.

There's definitely an excellent chance that Jeffrey still goes bonkers on Monday night, but Wilson absolutely draws the more favorable matchup. Cutler and the Bears will likely have opportunities to take shots downfield, and Wilson could be heavily involved.

Wilson checks in at the DraftKings minimum price of $3,000, which means that he has an outstanding chance of out-producing his cost.
