In PPR leagues, receptions are like gold. Even if you don't have a player who scores much in the end zone, he can easily make up for it if he can catch a high percentage of his targets. Six receptions is just as good as a touchdown any week.
The flip side would be a guy like Calvin Johnson. Johnson is averaging around ten targets a game, which is a consistent number all by itself. But he is also averaging two touchdowns a game, which leads the league (8). Those who have Johnson as their WR1 are sitting pretty right now, even though he's only averaging a little over 80 receiving yards each week. Make sure to check out Ray's receiver rankings to see where he will have Johnson ranked for Week Five.
