Marquez Valdes-ScantlingWRGNBNESTARTAt this point, it looks like Allison will be OUT this week. Assuming that doesn’t change, MVS should be a solid play vs NE in what would seem to be a high scoring outing.
Aaron JonesRBGNBNESTARTWith Montgomery out of the picture, Aaron Jones share of the backfield should stabilize / increase. Look for Jones to find some room to run and potentially find the end zone this week.
Kapri BibbsRBWASATLSTARTThis is a little riskier play. With Thompson out, Bibbs will play his role, but possibly with less volume.
D.J. MooreWRCARTBSTARTEveryone's been watching Moore starting to come into a strong enough role to start for their teams. This week he matches up against Tampa who has been very generous to opposing passing games.
Courtland SuttonWRDENHOUSTARTSutton's role should improve without Demaryius Thomas around now. He already has been the most targeted Denver WR in the end zone. His increase in targets should help provide a startable floor for Sutton.
Keke CouteWRHOUDENSTARTwithout Fuller, Coutee has been pretty productive. With Thomas just arriving in the trade with Denver, Coutee's snaps should be secure this week.
Tre'Quan SmithWRNOLARSTARTSmith has secured the WR2 job opposite Michael Thomas. Unfortunately, the Saints have flipped identies back to a run oriented team like last year. But, this game could force them back to put more points on the board. Smith might be needed.
