So this is my warning not to get too excited and chase Adonai Mitchell's Week 7 explosion against the down-bad Raiders. The Chiefs this season give up by far the lowest EPA per pass attempt to the boundary. Only four defenses allow a lower rate of fantasy points per boundary target. There's no question the KC secondary shuts down boundary wideouts (as well as slot guys, to a slightly lesser extent).

Mitchell faces Chiefs' elite boundary defense; avoid chasing Week 7 Raiders explosion.

Mitchell had an explosive Week 7 against the down-bad Raiders, but the source warns not to get too excited and chase that performance. Kansas City's secondary has been elite all season, giving up by far the lowest EPA per pass attempt to the boundary; only four defenses allow a lower rate of fantasy points per boundary target. The KC secondary shuts down boundary wideouts as well as slot guys to a slightly lesser extent. Mitchell will have to make the most of his air yards if he's going to get by as a WR3 this week.
