Jason Avant

Well, Avant's production has increased 3 games in a row now.

Week 3: 4-33
Week 4: 6-69
Week 5: 9-139

Targets have been solid and seem to be getting more efficient. First five weeks: 7, 4, 5, 8, 10.

What do you guys think about him?

From Rotoworld-

Jason Avant hauled in a career-high nine passes for 139 yards Sunday, but also lost a fumble and had an interception ripped out of his hands in Philadelphia's crushing 31-24 loss to the Bills.
Avant let Jairus Byrd rip the ball away from him at the end of a 35-yard catch in the third quarter before allowing Nick Barnett do the same with just 1:49 remaining in the fourth. Both turnovers were devastating for an Eagles team attempting to erase a 28-7 third-quarter deficit. Avant has now hauled in 15 passes for 208 yards on 18 targets the past two weeks, but it's a safe bet he'll be deemphasized in Week 6 after the display he put on today.

Interesting points about the turnovers and and possible consequences.

Yes he made some mistakes, but I dont think that will affect him too much going forward. He still is one of the more sure-handed WR's on the Eagles, and is a decent flex option during the bye weeks in PPR leagues.

He's got basically zero upside, and what you see is what you get. If you are in desperate need of a WR3 because of bye weeks or injuries maybe he's your man, but I generally consider him to be waiver wire fodder unless your league is very deep.
