BALLER MOVE: Stash in 14+ Team Leagues

ANALYSIS: Pierre Thomas has more or less disappeared since the first game of the season. It’s entirely possible he could still be the new “Darren Sproles” but so far this season he doesn’t look like it. While Travaris Cadet did nothing in the running game, he caught all six of his targets for 59 yards. That’s a great average of 9.8 yards per reception, and he certainly helped anyone who happened to play him in PPR formats last night. Granted, I imagine those people are in 32 team leagues, but hey a win is a win.

Everyone knows by now the Saints like to have at least one running back they feel comfortable passing to, and if last night’s game was any indication, Cadet and Brees have great chemistry. I’d be taking the chance that this 6’1 210 pound undrafted rookie could help my team in deeper PPR formats.
