START - GET THEM IN YOUR LINEUP
Quarterbacks:
Ben Roethlisberger (PIT)
The Steelers seem to cause got an internal create out at the minute alongside Big-Ben in addition to Antonio Brown regarding the number of targets that are going to the super star broad receiver. While the Steelers host the high-flying Atlanta Falcons, nosotros could easily run into a shootout transpire alongside Roethlisberger in 1 trial once to a greater extent than forcefulness feeding his go-to target. The Falcons defense forcefulness is extremely shorthanded in addition to volition live inward tough to halt Pittsburgh leaving Big-Ben having a fantastic day.
Philip Rivers (LAC)
As the Chargers proceed to underachieve on defense, Philip Rivers has been real productive inward the commencement 4 weeks of the season. Of the 4 contests, Rivers has seen entirely 1 give-up the ghost below the 20-point grade alongside a high reaching 34 fantasy points. Going upward against the Raiders this calendar week who themselves cause got their ain issues roofing the pass, leaves keen potential for Rivers in addition to the Chargers to in 1 trial once to a greater extent than work solid real solid statistics. Philip isn’t yet a must start every calendar week but is making his illustration extremely strong.
Carson Wentz (PHI)
This mightiness live 1 of our riskier predictions for a must start every bit Carson Wentz in addition to the Eagles facial expression to rebound from in conclusion weeks devastating loss to the Titans. Going upward against the Vikings whose defense forcefulness should live a dominating unit, cause got likewise underachieved so far this season. Their secondary has allowed opposing quarterbacks to burn downward them to the melody of allowing the 8th nearly to fantasy quarterbacks. With Wentz directly playing his tertiary contest, nosotros tin envision him settling downward in addition to in 1 trial once to a greater extent than playing at levels from in conclusion season. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 game that should’ve been a defensive shutdown, directly appears to teach a possible shootout. There is some run a endangerment to this play, buyer beware.
Alex Smith (WAS)
While Alex Smith hasn’t lite the reason a forcefulness out alongside his play early on, coming off the Bye-Week in addition to playing against the Saints who work solid 1 of the worst defensive groups inward price of fantasy points given upward to quarterbacks; this could cause got a keen bargain of potential. Smith has in 1 trial to a greater extent than proven to live the cheque downward manly mortal monarch nickel in addition to diming the opposition all over the field, nosotros could run into quite a few points scored on Mon Night Football. We do sympathise that in that place are to a greater extent than attractive options out there, but this matchup has us real excited at the potential.
Running Backs:
Austin Ekeler (LAC) (PPR)
If yous cause got been ignoring our past times endorsements of Austin Ekeler what else needs to live done for yous to accept notice. Throughout his entire career, Philip Rivers has excelled far greater alongside a transcend catching dorsum coming out of the backfield relieving pressure level inward the process. Ekeler has filled that curlicue to perfection in addition to volition proceed every bit his component is locked inward on this offense. When nosotros give-up the ghost dorsum in addition to review his ADP from fantasy drafts (Pick 190), Ekeler has managed to make numbers catapulting him to rank every bit the 16th best running dorsum inward PPR formats. No enquiry Austin volition cause got some other solid day, forcefulness out him upward in addition to don’t facial expression back.
Derrick Henry (TEN)
When reviewing the Titans Derrick Henry in addition to the lack of production in addition to extreme disappointment he’s provided his owners, some may enquiry why nosotros believe he’s a must start this week. Simply put, this matchup has the making for Henry to finally accept the trailer off in addition to run through a leaky Bills defense forcefulness that seems to live on the plain for bulk of contests. Ranked every bit the 6th worst grouping against fantasy running backs, nosotros could absolutely run into Henry gallop into the endzone at New Era Field. Based on how this twelvemonth has gone so far, this start does possess bust potential alongside practiced upside.
Marshawn Lynch (OAK)
The Raiders Marshawn Lynch has been quietly productive this flavor non seeing whatsoever competition autumn nether 12 fantasy points alongside a high grade of nearly 19. Going upward against the Chargers defense forcefulness that can’t seem to halt anyone from gashing them, Lynch has a keen chance to maintain the prepare going. We totally envision Lynch in 1 trial once to a greater extent than scampering into the endzone this calendar week to the please of his owners.
Aaron Jones (GB)
The Green Bay Packers move to Detroit to accept on the Lions who cause got been real soft when it comes to defending the run. Returning from interruption a dyad weeks ago, his component has increased to run into a to a greater extent than prominent deport on on contests. The Packers are dealing alongside a keen number of injuries to their receiving centre which could opened upward the door to a run heavy game-plan from coach McCarthy. Jones establish his agency to generate nearly fifteen fantasy points in conclusion calendar week which should live the flooring inward this contest.
Wide Receivers:
Michael Crabtree (BAL)
As the Ravens proceed to curlicue alongside a to a greater extent than balanced offensive group, 1 musician that has flown nether the radar has been Michael Crabtree. Putting upward decent numbers to start the season, he hasn’t shown that touchdown prowess nosotros expected. Going upward against the Browns rookie Denzel Ward should cause got its challenges, but nosotros could run into Crabtree notice the endzone for the commencement fourth dimension since calendar week one. The Ravens cause got shown a commitment inward feeding Crabtree seeing an average of 8.5 targets a game, that should proceed this week. The endzone volition live establish for Michael inward this contest.
Nelson Agholor (PHI) (PPR)
After an impressive commencement ii weeks of the flavor for Agholor, he has cooled off so much that he’s looking to live a mainstay on the bench. That volition alter this calendar week every bit the Eagles facial expression to live inward a potential shootout alongside the Vikings. Minnesota gives upward the 10th nearly to receivers in addition to alongside Alshon Jeffery dorsum inward the mix drawing Xavier Rhodes every bit the primary coverage corner, Nelson should run into to a greater extent than opened upward plain every bit the benefit. His target part has been in that place thence far this season, in addition to nosotros fully facial expression Agholor to live a primary focus inward the game plan.
Amari Cooper (OAK)
The Oakland Raiders transcend game establish its stride in conclusion calendar week seeing Derek Carr facial expression decisive in addition to proficient inward the process. Going upward against the Chargers this calendar week who cause got had keen struggles to halt anyone on defense, this divisional competition has the potential to run into a lot of points yet again. This criminal offense should ever characteristic Cooper but has struggled alongside consistency to start the season. Cooper broke out in conclusion calendar week which should in 1 trial to a greater extent than live the excogitation versus Los Angeles that gives upward the 5th nearly to receivers. Very practiced potential inward this one.
Jamison Crowder (WAS) (PPR)
Some may scoff at the notion that Jamison Crowder is a must start this calendar week given the lack of production he’s been able to deliver thence far. Coming off the Bye-Week, nosotros cause got cipher but confidence that the coaching staff volition give-up the ghost dorsum to the good in addition to reintegrate Crowder every bit a primary target. The Saints defense forcefulness has regressed so much that they directly surrender the nearly fantasy points to broad receivers leaving this 1 prime number for PPR points. We won’t live surprised to run into Jamison notice the endzone inward this 1 but hauling inward 8 receptions for 85-100 yards should live the line.
Tight-Ends:
Jordan Reed (WAS)
Much similar Crowder, Reed hasn’t been the forcefulness nosotros expected alongside Alex Smith throwing the ball. The Redskins exterior receivers go out a lot on the plain which should increment the middle where Reed makes his living. We could run into the Saints double-team Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan inward hopes Smith looks inward other directions, but nosotros could run into a touchdown for Reed inward this one. This is a blast or bust play but has solid upside to garner points.
Austin Hooper (ATL)
The Falcons cause got shown they in 1 trial once to a greater extent than are a forcefulness on the criminal offense every bit Matt Ryan gets to a greater extent than comfortable inward twelvemonth ii of the Sarkisian system. Austin Hooper is directly an afterwards idea when targets are distributed but volition concur value against the Steelers who surrender the nearly to fantasy tight-ends. He shouldn’t run into to a greater extent than than a handful of looks from Ryan, but scheme could run into Hooper targeted on a play activity transcend roughly the finish line. There is potential this doesn’t hitting the mark, but a touchdown could live establish for Austin this week.
SIT - LEAVE THEM ON THE BENCH
Quarterbacks:
Russell Wilson (SEA)
We recommended sitting Wilson before this flavor in addition to volition in 1 trial to a greater extent than render that same evaluation for calendar week 5. Its non that Wilson isn’t yet a top-notch quarterback, but rather the lack of options this Seahawks criminal offense employs. Furthermore, going upward against the Rams who are leaning toward existence the best squad inward the NFL, Wilson volition live on the run for nearly of the day. Garbage fourth dimension points is the entirely upside for Russell this week.
Baker Mayfield (CLE)
Rookie Baker Mayfield has shown keen science in addition to leadership inward his ii games played this season. Going upward against the Ravens who possess a defense forcefulness that gives the elite fits, Baker could live inward for a long solar daytime inward this one. We could actually run into a few hard hits in addition to welcome to the NFL moments for the immature play maker. He volition cause got keen games inward his career, but this shouldn’t live 1 of them.
Running Backs:
Carlos Hyde (CLE)
Carlos Hyde has been quite practiced this flavor but should notice it hard to run against 1 of the best run stooping defenses inward the NFL. Baltimore has exceptionally corrected the criminal offense which has allowed the defense forcefulness to notice to a greater extent than ease on the sidelines keeping them fresh longer. Hyde has teach a must play every week, but this calendar week nosotros recommend sitting him.
Dalvin Cook (MIN)
Our work organisation for Dalvin Cook this flavor coming off that ACL injury has been seen alongside missed games in addition to lack of explosiveness. Its unclear if Cook volition adapt upward for this 1 only yet, but fifty-fifty if he does, nosotros notice it real hard to endorse plugging him into your lineup. The Eagles defense forcefulness yet has 1 of the best defensive fronts inward the league in addition to Cook would cause got a hard fourth dimension finding holes fifty-fifty if he dresses for this one.
Lamar Miller (HOU)
We at ADF had high hopes that Miller in addition to the Texans criminal offense would’ve taken the adjacent measuring inward their progression, but it hasn’t been the illustration only yet. Miller has proven he tin live a feasible target inward the transcend game but leaving a lot to live desired inward the run attack. With word that Miller is quite banged upward entering this contest, nosotros are forced to house Lamar on the bench.
Wide Receivers:
Marquise Goodwin (SF)
With Jimmy-G lost for the season, the 49ers deep transcend game has also been lost leaving Marquise Goodwin a must bench for the foreseeable future. Going upward against the Cardinals defense forcefulness that has unopen downward the opposition to the melody of belongings the 4th best versus fantasy receivers, Goodwin won’t teach gratis inward this one.
Sammy Watkins (KC)
It comes to the betoken that nosotros tin no longer endorse Sammy Watkins inward fantasy football. Admittedly, nosotros cause got been Watkins greatest supporter believing he would finally compass the total play making potential inward Kansas City, but that send is sailing. Sammy continues to evidence he can’t rest on the plain piece having consistency issues on a weekly basis. If he suits upward for this one, the Jacksonville defense forcefulness volition give-up the ghost far seem similar he’s non on the plain anyway.
Doug Baldwin (SEA)
Taking estrus all offseason when nosotros suggested Baldwin in addition to the Seahawks would live inward tough nearly weeks inward the 2018 season, the same volition proceed against the Rams inward calendar week 5. Baldwin is playing at less than 100% in addition to the Hawks are facing a defensive grouping that has been real practiced this season. The Rams volition forcefulness Wilson to notice other options past times keeping a unopen oculus on Doug the entire game. Keep Doug on the bench until a matchup looks better.
Tight-Ends:
Austin Seferian-Jenkins (JAX)
Even though the Chiefs allow yards inward bunches to their opposition, nosotros can’t envision the Jaguars finding much success alongside Austin inward this 1 either. We had keen hopes inward the offseason that ASJ would aid this criminal offense movement forward, but his target part has teach hard to trust. Fully facial expression this matchup to bust.
POTENTIAL BIG DAY – ALL ABOUT THE RISK/REWARD
Quarterbacks:
Matthew Stafford (DET)
Nothing brings out the best inward players in addition to then facing off against a divisional rival, in addition to Matthew Stafford should notice his game inward this 1 versus the Packers. Even every bit the Packer defense forcefulness has been much improved against the pass, Matthew in addition to fellowship should live able to notice holes alongside their trio of keen transcend catchers. We could run into the best game of the flavor from the Lions in addition to Stafford this week.
Derek Carr (OAK)
We may live the entirely supporters left fishing for Derek Carr in addition to his abilities, in addition to this calendar week nosotros could in 1 trial to a greater extent than run into numbers much similar those of in conclusion week. The Chargers cause got a hard fourth dimension stopping anyone at the minute in addition to nosotros can’t run into them correcting this anytime soon. If Carr tin notice that magic he establish in conclusion week, Derek volition in 1 trial to a greater extent than live a top-flight producer for calendar week 5.
Running Backs:
Mark Ingram (NO)
The render for Mark Ingram from interruption could either give-up the ghost actually well, or actually horribly. Alvin Kamara has done a masterful project taking the Pb inward this offense, but fearfulness of existence overworked, the Saints should render Ingram a salubrious number of touches inward his commencement game back. There is bust potential here, but nosotros notice it hard to maintain him on the bench. Very high upside on Mon Night Football.
Dion Lewis (TEN)
The Titans Dion Lewis knows this Bills squad quite good from his days inward New England in addition to should live able to make practiced statistics. We could envision Lewis having a ameliorate solar daytime inward the transcend game racking upward the PPR points piece Henry hammers his agency through the line. Both backs should live at to the lowest degree flex starters for calendar week 5.
Kenyan Drake (MIA)
We volition give-up the ghost out on a limb hither to propose Kenyan Drake could run into his best outing this season. Coach Gase has gone on tape proverb the lack of usage has been game specific but has a keen appetite to teach him to a greater extent than involved. Going upward against the Bengals who facial expression much improved, Drake could in 1 trial to a greater extent than seat upward a duck, but nosotros experience he volition have his fair part of work. Very high-risk, high-reward for Drake this week.
Wide Receivers:
Donte Moncrief (JAX)
The Jags Donte Moncrief has establish his component early this flavor inward this criminal offense in addition to has made the nearly of his targets to a greater extent than oftentimes than not. Going upward against the Chiefs who allow middle of the pack numbers to fantasy receivers, Donte could in 1 trial to a greater extent than feast. There is potential for Kansas City to concur a Pb forcing Bortles to throw deep into the quaternary quarter.
Emmanuel Sanders (DEN)
We cause got been all over the Broncos Emmanuel Sanders this flavor in addition to he hasn’t disappointed 1 bit. This calendar week against the Jets, Sanders has fantastic appeal to in 1 trial once to a greater extent than notice his agency to generate keen numbers. New York struggles to halt nearly offenses where Case Keenum should live able to feed Sanders to the melody of vi receptions for 100-120 yards in addition to at to the lowest degree 1 touchdown.
Ty Montgomery (GB)
As the Packers laid upward to accept on the Lions, the amount injuries to their receiving centre could allow Ty Montgomery to create total inward in addition to cause got a prevalent role. We do caution to review the lineups on game solar daytime before pulling the trigger on Monty, but inward PPR formats, he could cause got a large solar daytime playing a bigger role.
Tight-Ends:
Ricky Seals-Jones (ARZ)
With rookie Josh Rosen taking over every bit the starting quarterback, all options run into an uptick specially tight-end Seals-Jones. We do house a for certain degree of caution on this start every bit nosotros would similar to run into how good this criminal offense tin produce. With that said, if Rosen turns out to live a player, Seals-Jones could live a massive benefactor inward the redzone.
Tyler Kroft (CIN)
With the Bengals Tyler Eifert finding his agency dorsum to the medical room for the balance of the season, Tyler Kroft could in 1 trial to a greater extent than notice his agency to an expanded component much similar in conclusion year. Some cause got suggested that CJ Uzomah volition accept the Pb at tight-end to start, but nosotros demand to run into that transpire to teach off the Kroft prepare to run into the target share. Good potential for an endzone trip here.
