Footballguys on Reggie Virgil
From the article
Arizona selected Virgil in the fifth round of this year's NFL Draft out of Texas Tech, where he caught 57 passes for 705 yards and six touchdowns as the primary X receiver... He was active for the first time this week and was targeted five times at an average depth of 13 yards, mostly in garbage time. He's a longer-term play unlikely to help contenders this season, but he's worth a deep-bench stash as a bye-week fill-in or injury replacement in deeper lineups. He has weekly boom potential as a deep threat for an offense that frequently plays from behind.
STACKED’s take
Virgil is a deep-bench dynasty stash with boom potential as Cardinals fade.
Arizona fifth-round rookie WR from Texas Tech (57 rec, 705 yards, 6 TDs as primary X receiver) is a deep-bench dynasty stash with a plausible path to playing time as the Cardinals fade at 1-4. After Marvin Harrison Jr. was traded to Houston, Jalen Brooks and Simi Fehoko rotated into the X role in Week 5, but neither is a long-term solution (both free agents after this season). Virgil was active for the first time this week and was targeted five times at 13-yard average depth, mostly in garbage time. His length, quickness, and contested-catch ability give him weekly boom potential as a deep threat in an offense that frequently plays from behind. He's unlikely to help contenders this season but worth a deep-bench stash as a bye-week fill-in or injury replacement in deeper lineups.
