Deep dives
Josh Downs is exceeding expectations
Josh Downs, a rookie wide receiver, has emerged as a consistent fantasy starter due to his high volume of targets and ability to earn yards. While there may be doubts about his long-term potential, he has proven himself valuable in fantasy lineups.
Za'Quan Flowers' usage is concerning
Za'Quan Flowers, another young wide receiver, has not been used effectively in the Baltimore Ravens' offense. With a high percentage of targets behind the line of scrimmage and minimal usage in the intermediate area, Flowers' production may be limited in fantasy football.
George Pickens is being utilized differently
George Pickens, a rookie wide receiver, has seen a shift in his usage this season. With a significant number of deep targets and a high percentage of targets in the intermediate area, Pickens is showcasing a different skill set and providing consistent value for fantasy football teams.
Trey McBride's Potential as the Cardinals' Number One Read
Trey McBride, the rookie tight end for the Arizona Cardinals, had a breakout performance with 14 targets, accounting for 39% of the team's targets and a 27% target share per route run. While it's still a small sample size, this performance raises questions about McBride's potential future in the offense. With the uncertainty surrounding the future of players like Hollywood Brown and Rondale Moore, there's a chance that McBride could emerge as the Cardinals' number one read next season. Considering the lack of teams that consistently build around the tight end position, McBride's opportunity to become a focal point in the offense makes him an intriguing dynasty asset.
Concerns about Zay Flowers' Utilization in the Ravens' Offense
Zay Flowers, the rookie wide receiver for the Baltimore Ravens, has shown potential in his rookie season. However, there are concerns about his utilization in the Ravens' offense. Currently, Flowers is being used primarily close to the line of scrimmage, with 66% of his targets coming within 10 yards. While he has the talent to be a big-play threat, the Ravens have limited his downfield opportunities. This raises questions about his future production and role within the offense. However, it's still early in his career, and there's a chance his utilization could change as he develops.
