Elic Ayomanor is going to be one of Cam Ward's favorite targets for a long time.
The rookie WR for the Tennessee Titans showed how much Ward trusts him on a ridiculous broken-play, jump-ball touchdown in Week 2.
And now, Ayomanor might just be the guy you should add in your fantasy football league off the waiver wire before someone else does.

ESPN's Eric Moody made the case in a new article Saturday:
"Ayomanor has shown excellent chemistry with No. 1 pick Cam Ward, seeing six or more targets in consecutive games and scoring 15.6 fantasy points in Week 2. He ranks second in routes run (54) and targets (12) among Tennessee receivers, sitting behind Calvin Ridley in both categories. The Colts are middle-of-the-road in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers, making Ayomanor an intriguing flex option in deeper formats."
Ayomanor has a great pedigree.
In college at Stanford, he had the best game any WR has ever played while being guarded by Travis Hunter. That's as good of evidence as any of Ayomanor's talent.

And having the two rookies grow up together is surely exactly what the Titans want. So Ayomanor should get all the work he can handle in the weeks ahead.
He's only rostered in 14% of ESPN fantasy leagues. That should be a heck of a lot higher, and it will be soon, so don't miss out.
