ADVICE

Use Johnston For Upside, Not As Safe Floor

  • Start Quentin Johnston if you need ceiling upside, but don't bench Keenan Allen yet.
  • Treat Johnston as high-upside play rather than an automatic weekly WR1.
ADVICE

Fannin Is A Ceiling Tight End, Not A Sure Start

  • Pick up Harold Fannín Jr. for tight end upside but don't bench safer options like Tucker Kraft.
  • Use Fannín as a ceiling play while monitoring David Njoku's usage.
ADVICE

Stash Boothe, Don’t Force Start

  • Grab Kayshon Boothe as a stash but don't expect consistent week-to-week starting volume yet.
  • Wait for clearer target share after Stefon Diggs fully returns before starting regularly.
