ANECDOTE

Bad Bench Regret With Sean Tucker

  • Andrew Erickson benched Sean Tucker and regretted it when Tucker scored multiple touchdowns.
  • Erickson did start Michael Wilson, which softened the blow despite a poor overall rank finish.
INSIGHT

Top-Tier Receiver Consensus

  • The top-end WR ranks are stable with Puka, JSN, Amon-Ra, Rashod, CeeDee, and Collins leading the board.
  • Tee Higgins and Chris Olave create the only notable debates near the top due to matchup and shadow coverage concerns.
ADVICE

Start Tee Higgins For Upside

  • Start Tee Higgins aggressively because he wins contested 50-50 balls and Joe Flacco will keep throwing his way.
  • Treat Higgins as a high-upside play even if Christian Gonzalez shadows him.
