Deontay Johnson: A Reliable and Undervalued Receiver
Deontay Johnson, with a consistent target share and reliability in the Steelers' offense, presents as a post-type sleeper at wide receiver. Despite concerns about the team's overall performance, Johnson's skill set and opportunity to be a primary target make him a valuable fantasy option.
Jamison Williams and Quentin Johnston: Emerging Talents with Fantasy Potential
Jamison Williams showcases promise after impactful performances, while Quentin Johnston offers potential as a post-hype sleeper despite prior setbacks. Williams' strong showing in critical games and improved health signal a bright future, while Johnston's growth and development demonstrate fantasy value, making them both intriguing options for fantasy rosters.
Nick Sirianni's Accountability in Coaching Staff Selection
As the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, Nick Sirianni might face criticism for decisions made by upper management regarding his coaching staff. Despite not selecting his own offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator, Sirianni could still be held accountable if the team underperforms. In a situation where the head coach doesn't have full control over staff selections, the organization may prioritize team success over individual preferences.
