INSIGHT

Mahomes Is Back As Fantasy QB1

  • Patrick Mahomes has returned to elite fantasy QB1 production with improved downfield passing and top-five offense metrics.
  • Rasheed Rice's return and Xavier Worthy give Mahomes more real weapons, raising his ceiling further.
ADVICE

Don't Panic On Rice's First Game

  • Do not overreact if Rasheed Rice posts a limited snap share or modest target total in his first game back.
  • Treat his return as a ramp into a high-upside role and avoid knee-jerk roster moves.
INSIGHT

Olave's Problem Is Situation, Not Usage

  • Chris Olave ranks highly in usage but severely underperforms fantasy scoring, pointing to a situational/quarterback problem.
  • Continued usage suggests upside if Spencer Rattler or the offense improves, so hold rather than panic-sell.
