Fantasy owners shouldn't be fooled by name brand with Reggie Wayne going to Patriots
While Reggie Wayne agreed to a deal with the New England Patriots, that doesn't necessarily mean that he should be anywhere near your fantasy radar.

We asked our experts if Wayne pairing with Tom Brady this season makes the veteran receiver worth a look in fantasy leagues and the answer was clearly one-sided.
Minimally productive. He's 36 and eroded rapidly in recent years. Worth add in 16+ league. About it. https://t.co/ennyBa5qem

Reggie Wayne sure looked done last year and is coming off two offseason surgeries. He can safely be ignored in fantasy leagues.

We're asked to rank 80 wideouts for the @YahooFantasy exercise. Reggie Wayne, in any city, won't make my Top 80. Tank just about E. #hottake

Reggie Wayne in New England is good for Week 6 headlines, not your #FantasyFootball team. No "value" here. Just step away.

Veteran R. Wayne provides depth/insurance for oft-injured Pats WRs, but don't make more of it because it's a name brand pairing with Brady

While Wayne will be headed for Canton down the road, don't be fooled by the name.
