Tyler Boyd A WR3 This Week
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd is a WR3 this week against Miami. Boyd has seen at least seven targets in nine of 11 games but has been a bit inconsistent in terms of weekly yardage. It's worth noting Boyd has over 50 yards in seven of 11 games, so this makes him a solid […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoGiovani Bernard An RB3 In Week 13
Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard is worth RB3 consideration this week. Bernard has been the lead back on the Bengals for a bit now but has only gotten more than 40 rushing yards once in the past five games. The RB provides modest value in the passing game too and he has seen at […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoBrandon Allen Not A Starting Option
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Brandon Allen is not a viable starter this week against the Dolphins. The new backup QB had 136 yards with one touchdown and one interception last week in his first game as a starter and with only one game's worth of sample size, it would be hard to trust him this week. […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoChase McLaughlin Not A Starting Option This Week
Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Chase McLaughlin is not a viable starter this week. Though he has made all three of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in two games played this season, the sample size is too small and it's fair to question his reliability compared to other kickers who have played most […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoJaguars Defense Should Stay On Waivers
The Jacksonville Jaguars Defense should remain benched or on waivers this week. The Jags play Minnesota, a team that has solid receivers in Adam Thielen and Justin Jefferson, an elite back in Dalvin Cook, and a QB in Kirk Cousins who can get hot any given week. Meanwhile, Jacksonville ranks among the bottom of the […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoTyler Eifert Not A Viable Starter
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tyler Eifert is not a worthy starter this week against Minnesota. In nine games played, the TE has only surpassed 40 yards once, and he has also been very inconsistent in his weekly numbers. Because the Jaguars don't have a strong passing attack, this makes Eifert too risky to start and […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoKeelan Cole Sr. Nothing More Than Flex Piece
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole Sr. is only a low-end flex for this week. Cole has produced at least five targets in three of the past five games but has only gotten over 40 yards in two of the past five games. The Jaguars don't have a strong passing attack due to their multiple […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoLaviska Shenault Jr. A Flex Play At Best
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. should be considered nothing more than a lower-end flex against the Vikings this week. In the past four games, the rookie has only eclipsed 40 yards and five targets once. Jacksonville has no stability at QB and its passing attack isn't high-powered. As a result, Shenault doesn't produce […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. is a WR3 for Week 13 against the Vikings. As the WR1 on the team, Chark does see targets, but he doesn't always produce. The WR has gotten at least seven targets in four of the past five games but has only gotten at least 45 yards in […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoJames Robinson Is RB1 This Week
Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson is an RB1 this week against the Vikings. The 22-year-old has now rushed for at least 99 yards in four of the last five games and has been stellar this season as the lead back for the Jags even though his value in the passing game has been minimal. […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoMike Glennon Should Remain Benched
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Mike Glennon will once again get the start this week but should remain benched in fantasy. Glennon posted 235 yards and two touchdowns last week in an impressive performance, but that was only one game and the journeyman has not proved he is worthy of a start each week. The Vikings are […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoWil Lutz A Solid Start In Week 13
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz is a great start this week against a Falcons squad that is in the middle of the pack against fantasy kickers. Lutz hit his lone field goal and went 4-for-4 in extra points last week. On the season, the kicker has gone 20-for-22 in field goals and 38-for-38 in […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoSaints Defense Remains In Starting Tier
The New Orleans Saints Defense remains in the starting tier this week, even against a solid Falcons offense. Just two weeks ago, this unit dominated Atlanta to the tune of eight sacks and two interceptions and added another sack and two picks last week against the Broncos, albeit against an offense that was being run […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoJared Cook Should Stay On Bench
New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook is not a viable starter this week against Atlanta. Though the Falcons allow the most fantasy points to TEs, Cook only produced one reception for six yards on one target against them a couple of weeks ago and is currently in a slump. In the past three games, […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoEmmanuel Sanders A Deep Flex
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders should be considered nothing more than a deep flex against Atlanta this week. Sanders has had one reception and one target in two of the past three games and remains far too inconsistent to be trusted for fantasy weekly. Add in the fact that Taysom Hill's presence makes […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoMichael Thomas A Low-End WR1
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas is a low-end WR1 this week. Thomas is still dealing with his ankle injury but managed to put up four receptions for 50 yards on six targets last week. With Taysom Hill under center, the passing game is not expected to be explosive, but Thomas' role as the […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoLatavius Murray An RB3 This Week
New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray is an RB3 this week against Atlanta. With Alvin Kamara affected by a foot injury, Murray had double-digit carries in the past two games and rushed for a season-high 124 yards last week. Kamara is still hampered with the injury, meaning Murray could see a good share of […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoAlvin Kamara A Low-End RB1
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is a low-end RB1 this week against the Falcons. Kamara is currently dealing with a foot injury and has a total of 99 rushing yards and -2 receiving yards in the past two games. It's clear the injury may be affecting the RB's play and adding onto that […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoTaysom Hill A Low-End QB1 In Week 13
New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill is a low-end QB1 against Atlanta on Sunday. In his first game taking over for Drew Brees a couple of weeks ago, Hill also faced the Falcons and had 233 yards passing and two rushing touchdowns. Being a dual-threat and adding the fact that the Falcons allow the second-most […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoDeeper League Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13
This past week brought more COVID-related adjustments, but no games were completely canceled and teams came to play on Sunday (even the QB-less Broncos). With many players sitting on IR or being put on the COVID list, many managers have had to scramble for replacements. This week, I have come up with a limited list […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoJared Cook Held Without A Catch
New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook finished with zero yards on two targets in the win over Denver. Though the Saints' passing attack was quiet in the win, Cook now has a total of one reception for six yards on five targets in the past three games total. In 10 games played, Cook has […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoEmmanuel Sanders Has One Catch
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders had one catch for four yards on one target in Week 12. The Saints dominated on the ground and the passing attack was quiet as a result. Sanders has nonetheless been very inconsistent and streaky this season for fantasy managers. The WR only has more than 56 yards […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoMichael Thomas Has 50 Yards
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas had four receptions for 50 yards on six targets in the Week 12 win over Denver. It was a quiet day for the New Orleans passing game as the rushing attack was dominant, but Thomas still had a decent outing compared to the rest of the pass-catching unit. […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoLatavius Murray Rushes For 124 Yards
New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray had his best game of the season in Week 12, taking 19 carries for 124 yards and two scores along with getting one reception for two yards on one target. Murray has been a factor in the Saints' offense all season, as he has had double-digit carries and […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoAlvin Kamara Has 54 Rushing Yards
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara had 11 carries for 54 yards and one reception for -2 yards in the blowout win over the Broncos. It was a quiet day at the office by Kamara's standards and this was due to Latavius Murray stealing the show this week. Nevertheless, the RB is a focal […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoTaysom Hill Has Two Rushing Touchdowns
New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill finished Week 12 by going 9-for-16 for 78 yards and a pick along with 10 carries for 44 yards and two rushing touchdowns. Hill once again had two rushing touchdowns, and his value this week relied more on that. The QB is certainly a dual-threat and while it's likely […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoYounghoe Koo Makes Five Field Goals
Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo went a perfect 5-for-5 in field goals in the Week 12 win over Las Vegas. He also made four extra points. Koo's longest field goal was 54 yards in the win and he has now gone 29-for-30 in field goals this season. He is also 22-for-25 in extra points. Koo […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoHayden Hurst Sees Eight Targets
Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst compiled four receptions for 48 yards on eight targets in Week 12. After getting nothing last week, the TE redeemed himself. Though he has had a few bad games this season, Hurst has had a stable role in this Atlanta offense and has usually put up decent numbers each […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoRussell Gage Posts 34 Yards
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage finished with three receptions for 34 yards on five targets in the Week 12 blowout win over the Raiders. Even with Julio Jones not playing, Gage did not see a boost in value throughout the game. He has been rather streaky this season and has only posted over 50 […]

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley had six receptions for 50 yards and a score on nine targets in Week 12. Ridley was the WR1 on Sunday with Julio Jones not playing due to a hamstring injury. The WR has seen at least seven targets in eight of 10 games and has produced at least […]
