Browns rookie receiver Josh Gordon is averaging 17.4 yards per catch.

In his last two games, he has 14 receptions for 202 yards and one touchdown.

He has five TDs in his last nine contests.

In the latter span, he has 35 catches for 639 yards and five TDs -- a 16-game pace of 62 receptions for 1,136 yards and nine scores.

All of which isn't to hammer home the point Tom Heckert shouldn't lose his job to Mike Lombardi (of course he shouldn't), but to say Josh Gordon is a fantasy starter.

Yes, your Cleveland Browns have a fantasy starter other than Trent Richardson and Phil Dawson.

On draft day, you would be elated if I told you your No. 3 fantasy receiver would finish the season with more than 60 catches, more than 1,100 yards and end the campaign with nine TDs.

That's how productive Gordon has been since Week 5, which makes it puzzling he is available in more than 62 percent of the leagues on ESPN.com.

If you play in a league in Northeast Ohio, there is very little chance Gordon is available on the waiver wire.

If you were fortunate enough to claim him in past weeks, play him as your third receiver.

If you're reading this in Pennsylvania, New York or somewhere else -- I hear this blog is huge in Australia -- put in a claim on Gordon today.

There are many advantages of advancing to the semifinals in fantasy football.

The bragging rights, the cash, the women. Too many to count, really.

One edge that might not come to mind: Getting a gem on the waiver wire.

If you will be playing in your league's final four in Week 15, there is obviously much less competition for players. And with Giants running back David Wilson potentially available, that is a very good thing.

Wilson, a rookie drafted with the final pick of the first round by the Giants last spring, was a player many of us expected to have an impact in fantasy this season.

Wilson made us wait 14 weeks for said impact, which meant many owners had already dropped him -- he is available in almost 60 percent of the leagues on ESPN.com.

If you need help at the flex position or are looking for a third running back in Week 15, Wilson could be an excellent choice.

He rushed for 100 yards and two touchdowns on 13 carries Sunday against the Saints. He also returned a kickoff 97 yards for a score and had 327 all-purpose yards.

Wilson received more work than expected because of a knee injury suffered by Ahmad Bradshaw. The latter left the game with the ailment, but later returned. Monday, Bradshaw had tests done on the knee.

If it's announced Bradshaw will miss time, Wilson is a must-start this week against at Atlanta, which is tied for 23rd defending the run and has allowed 14 rushing touchdowns.

In Week 16, the Giants will play at Baltimore, which also struggles against the run (No. 25).

Even if Bradshaw plays, Wilson should get a decent amount of touches as a change-of-pace back. Because of his excellence as a returner, he likely won't get 20 to 25 carries, but as he displayed Sunday, he is in the C.J. Spiller mold -- sometimes 15 attempts is all it takes.
