Roddy White, WR, Atlanta Falcons

By Roddy White's standards, he has had a fairly disappointing 2015 season. His 496 receiving yards on the season are his lowest total since his rookie year, and his 0.64 Reception NEP per target ranks him as just the 53rd most efficient wideout with at least 50 targets this season.

But, recently, White has shown the league that he still has enough left in the tank to make an impact both in real and fantasy football. On Sunday, White converted 6 targets into 5 catches for 67 yards to contribute 6.34 Reception NEP to his team in a surprise win over the then-undefeated Carolina Panthers.

With a dream matchup with the Saints' 32nd-ranked passing defense and with White averaging 6 targets per game since the team's Week 10 bye, the Falcons' elder statesman could be the wide receiver waiver wire add who goes off in Week 17 to push your team over the top this week.
