Deep dives
Buy CD lamb
Now is a good time to buy low on CD lamb. The Cowboys have faced tough wide receiver matchups in recent weeks, but their upcoming schedule opens up with favorable matchups against the Chargers, Rams, Eagles, Giants, Panthers, commanders, Seahawks, and Eagles. Expect the offense to bounce back and for lamb to see increased opportunities. Target owners who may be frustrated with lamb's slow start and acquire him for a discounted price.
Sell Saquon Barkley
Saquon Barkley's outlook is concerning due to the Giants' poor offensive line, the potential for negative game scripts, and the challenging schedule ahead. With the 30th ranked strength of schedule against running backs, it may be difficult for Barkley to produce consistent fantasy numbers. Take advantage of any optimism surrounding his return from injury and sell high on Barkley before his value potentially declines further.
Buy Jerry Jeudy
Now is a good time to buy low on Jerry Jeudy. He recently returned from injury and set season highs in snaps, routes, and targets in Week 5. Despite the struggles of the Broncos' offense, Jeudy is the WR1 in the team and has a chance to perform well in upcoming games. Take advantage of his low value and acquire him before his performance improves.
Buy Zay Flowers
Zay Flowers has seen an increased role in the Boston College offense in recent weeks. He has become a top target for quarterback Phil Jurkovec, and the team has started to utilize him more in downfield passing plays. With a growing target share and improved usage, Flowers has the potential for big games ahead. Look to acquire him before his breakout performance.
