Player Pos Team Opp Start / Sit Comment
Jimmy Garoppolo QB SF ARI SIT Arizona has been a tough opponent this year ranking in the top 3 toughest defenses vs the fantasy QB.
Trevor Lawrence QB JAC BUF SIT Lawrence has been a bit of a streamer this year. When the matchup is good, he can put in 20 points, but this is not the week.
Joe Burrow QB CIN CLE START The Browns were expected to have a better defense, but they've been giving up points to fantasy QBs this seaon. Burrow has good chemistry with his targets including working in Uzomah some in addition to college buddy JaMarr Chase, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd. Roll him out there if you have him.
Tommy Sweeney TE BUF JAC START TE is a tough position each year. With Dawson Knox out again this week, Sweeney has the matchup to capitalize. Try him if you're desperate.
Van Jefferson WR LAR TEN START You might try Jefferson, he's typically just a sub-optimal play, but with DeSean Jackson released and Robert Woods banged up a bit plus a good matchup vs Tennessee this could be a decent play for teams having BYE week issues.
Brandin Cooks WR HOU MIA START As with mostl receivers, Cooks tends to have a boom or bust profile, but the matchup is good, Tyrod looks to return - roll Cooks out in your lineups
Devonta Smith WR PHI LAC SIT Smith is a promising young rookie, but I don't like the matchup this week vs the Chargers. Hurts is also struggling and Philadelphia re-discovered the rushing attack last week.
