0:00The guys you know that you start are going to be Puka, JSN, Lamb, London.
0:04There's nothing really to discuss between these players. I will say that I'm going up against Puka. I could not be more scared because right now the
0:13Rams project to be the highest scoring offense in the league and Puka has had 36 targets over the past two games. Yes,
0:2236 targets. So, he is going to absolutely wreck my world. It's going to be brutal. I'm mentally preparing that I have to go up against Puka this week
0:30who's going to drop 40. But obviously there's not much worth discussing because if you have these top four players there in your lineup. I guess
0:38Drake London could have been in the tier below if it looked like Michael Penn was going to potentially miss. But Michael
0:44Penn did practice in full on Thursday.
0:46So he should be good to go for this game. Now moving over to our B tier, we are going to have Chris Ave playing in
0:54New York. Alave just has a dominant amount of targets here for this Saints offense. He has had at least doubledigit targets every single week outside of
1:04this past week against the Minnesota Vikings where obviously he fell incredibly flat. Now, it was a really tough matchup. I'm going to assume that
1:13Ave is a-okay for this game. I will say he did not practice on Wednesday. He did not practice on Thursday with an
1:21illness. So, just make sure you are continuing to stay up to date with the news on Friday and Saturday, but he
1:26should be good. Nico Collins has a really tough matchup having to play against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Jacksonville. I'll say I'm not concerned
1:34whatsoever about Marvin Harrison coming in and stealing targets from Nico, though he is still the certified alpha.
1:41Then with Mike Evans, Mike Evans did not practice today, but I am not going to be stressing about it. We have seen at this
1:49point over and over again that Mike Evans and his old man body on Wednesday on Thursday, hell, he just wants to stay
1:57in bed. He just wants to rest up. He is going to be a dominant force on Sunday.
2:02This is a team that has no other wide receivers that they could potentially look at with dribbling out, with um Ricky Pier out, with Debo Samuel out.
2:13It's Mike Evans, Christian McAffrey, George KD, that's it. And it's a great match up against Washington where the ners project score 29 points. Now I am
2:23starting Christian Watson and please for the love of God Christian Watson come through and save me against Puka Nakua.
2:31Watson is averaging about 22 fantasy points per game. He is doing so with both insane efficiency as well as getting some volume here. I'll say he
2:41probably comes back down to earth later in this season. and he's averaging over a touchdown per game off of only eight
2:47targets. He's the wide receiver, three in points per game, but I would expect that this probably isn't the game that he does fall off because this is a
2:56phenomenal matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Now, Malik Neighbors is in that close game environment going up against the New Orleans Saints. Again, if we
3:06look at Neighbors as of late with Jamus Under Center, he just saw 20 targets this past week. Back-to-back games with 20 fantasy points or more. Um, he looks
3:17like he is fully back. A quote came out of camp today or I'm sorry, practice today of neighbors saying he felt like
3:24he's only 20% healthy, but still, I mean, the dude is just looking like he's in his peak form and Jameus is slinging.
3:31Plus, it's a good matchup. Now Zay Flowers is going to be down here because I am expecting that we probably have no
3:37Lamar Jackson for this game. Lamar Jackson did miss practice today.
3:42Obviously that is going to be an important note here. If Lamar were to play then Z Flowers probably does slide up to being our wide receiver of five.
3:51But ultimately if you don't have Lamar Jackson you have to lower your expectations across the board here for Baltimore. And they are only four-point
3:59favorites over Cleveland. So, I expect that's a line based on markets projecting that Lamar's going to miss.
4:05Now, Devonte Adams also can come out and crush. I was supposed to be the highest scoring team in the Flock League this
4:11past week. Win $5,000. We're going to give it away to an animal shelter here in Austin. Sadly, Devonte Adams came from nowhere and crushed my soul with
4:21multiple receiving touchdowns. I mean, he was only on the field for 73% of the snaps this past week, but frankly, it
4:28doesn't matter. The Rams just score so many freaking points and this dude is a beast when it comes to the red zone
4:35usage. Now Garrett Wilson super safe option for now when you have nobody else to go to for the Jets. Like here this is
4:43an offense that probably still has no Omar Cooper. Definitely has no Adai Mitchell. Definitely has no Bree Hall and Kunyan Sadique may miss. So like
4:52Garrett Wilson's the only guy left standing. The Jets are sevenpoint dogs as well. So, there's a damn good chance they're throwing the ball in the second
4:59half. And then Parker Washington, again, we are ranking these guys in a tier because if you wanted to have Parker Washington all the way up at five, I
5:08would not fault you for it. The reason I'm going to have Parker Washington down here at 13 is just going to be the fact
5:15that it is a tough matchup against the Houston Texans. Now, let's move over to the C tier. Here we have Michael Wilson.
5:26This game has a crazy high overunder.
5:29Like right now the overunder is I want to say about 53 54 points. But the Cardinals are 12 and a half point dogs.
5:36Now what we have seen with the Arizona Cardinals is they are willing to just completely abandon the run, go straight into garbage mode once they get down
5:46enough in a game, which there is a good chance that that is going to be happening here against the Los Angeles
5:51Rams. Now looking at George Pickins, CD Lamb did practice in full. So it looks like this I think it was a quad bruise
6:01is going to have legitimately no effect whatsoever on Lamb this week where Pickkins I still think that he is an absolute mustart wide receiver every
6:12week regardless. But it's probably tough to project out the 28 fantasy points that he had against Tampa because again, a lot of that came when CD Lamb had to
6:20leave the field due to his injury. Then Matthew Golden in that same very strong matchup against the Dallas Cowboys that you have from Christian Watson. Watson's
6:30the bigger play wide receiver, the bigger receiver in general, so he's a better red zone threat, but Matthew Golden's actually had more target
6:37volume. And again, anybody in the Ctier or above, you just absolutely need to start. Now looking at Teteroa McMillan, this is an interesting setup because
6:47one, Jaylen Coker did practice in full today. And two, now that we have no Jaylen Herz, just the overall game environment is supposed to be worse here
6:58between the Carolina Panthers and the Philadelphia Eagles. Like this Eagles offense is going to have no chance to move the ball down the field
7:05effectively. Like we can actually pull this up on Poly Market US where earlier in the week while it looked like Jayen
7:12Herz was going to play. I mean the odds of this game it was kind of 5050 but once it was announced that Jaylen Herz
7:19is out you actually have the Panthers shooting up as 64% favorites here against the Philadelphia Eagles and the overunder of the games only 38 and a
7:28half points now. though should be a game in which you probably have Carolina being able to rely on the run and not a
7:35ton of points scored overall. Now, obviously, if you wanted to check out any of those markets on Poly Market US, you can find the link in the description
7:43comment section live chat. If you sign up with promo code flock, you will get $25 added into your account after you
7:49deposit your first 10. Available in every state outside of Nevada.
7:54Now, going over to the D tier, this is where things flatten out again. I would say the majority of us would be starting
8:02wide receivers in this tier, but if you're either in a shallow format or if you have an absolutely loaded team, you
8:09could look at benching them. Again, I would rather not, though. Jaylen Coker got in a full practice on Wednesday, a full practice on Thursday. So, it
8:19doesn't appear that this is going to be an injury that you need to be super concerned about. Now going to Devont
8:26Smith. I don't know if Smith's going to play. What we do know is Jaylen Herz will not. So this offense is going to be
8:32pretty bad. But also if you have no Saquon Barkley, they may be forced to just go through and throw the ball over
8:39and over and over again. Now looking at I mean it's because not only do they have no Barkley, but they have no Tank
8:46Bixby, they have no Will Shipley, and they're going to be dogs in this matchup. Now, looking at Luther Burton, the quote that we got from Caleb
8:53Williams on Wednesday is he doesn't know if he's going to be playing yet. He is going to have to pass some medical test,
8:59blah blah blah. Um, right now, this Chicago Bears offense is being priced out as if Caleb is the starting quarterback here. And while Luther
9:09Burton's been very disappointing from a fantasy perspective, he has cemented himself as the top target earner here in Chicago where he is currently averaging
9:19seven targets per game. That's 21% of this team's target share. You do have the big play upside and I do like the
9:25matchup playing in Atlanta.
9:28Now going to DK Medaf. DK Metaf's been horrific in fantasy football this season, averaging nine and a half fantasy points per game, but this is one
9:38a pretty good matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And two, on top of this as well, like you have no Roman Wilson, you have no
9:50Michael Pitman Jr., so you're going up against tight ends and Jeremy Bernard.
9:55So, Mechaf's had a considerable amount of target volume.
9:59Now, going over to Carnell Tate, the Tennessee Titans last week projected to be the worst offense in the NFL. So, it's a pretty easy spot to say sell high
10:09on Carnell Tate. Pretty easy spot to say, you know what, he's probably going to let you down. But, this is a much
10:17easier matchup than what he had against the Houston Texans. The Titans do not project to be the worst offense in the
10:23NFL this week. I mean, so far in terms of the other offenses we've talked about in this video, like they project to be
10:30better than the New York Jets. They project to be better than the Philadelphia Eagles. Obviously, still very, very bad, but Tate is the best
10:38wide receiver in this offense. He is an incredible talent, and you're just hoping that they can put points on the board because they get to play against
10:45the Indianapolis Colts. Now going to Denzel Boston. The Cleveland Browns of course project to be a horrific offense.
10:54Actually a worse offense than what you have with the Tennessee Titans just slightly.
10:59But you have no Casey Conception or at least I'm expecting that you have no Casey Conception in this game with Conception dealing with the concussion.
11:08And Boston I he's proven to be talented.
11:12I just don't love the offense while at the same time he hasn't had a ton of target volume.
11:17Now moving over to Jaylen Waddle. We are rocking the Waddle jersey. This is a garbage matchup. You're having to play against the Seattle Seahawks. The Denver
11:26Broncos project to only score 19 points in this game, which is very much in line with what you have with the Tennessee
11:31Titans. Very much in what you have with the Cleveland Browns. And at the same time, while Waddle is the wide receiver
11:38one here, he hasn't proven to be like an alpha receiver, seeing 25 to 30% of his team's targets here. So, um I think he's
11:45a borderline flex play. I would like to bench if you could because it's a tough matchup, but he is talented enough. He
11:52has the big play upside where um I mean he definitely would be hitting my lineup this week with how bad my own team is
11:58with ETN injured Jefferson and J Mo on by. Now, Xavier Worthy, I hate myself for cutting Xavier Worthy. I cut worthy
12:07after week three when he was sitting with about 0.7 yards per route run.
12:12Looking like the worst wide receiver in the entire NFL and he is yet to score 15 fantasy points in a game over the last
12:2017 games that he has played.
12:23So, I cut him and then Rasheed Rice got injured. Taquan Thornton got injured and now you really just have Worthy by
12:31himself with arguably one of the best quarterbacks of all time, no target competition outside of Travis Kelce. So, while Xavier Worthy doesn't
12:42look good, he has consistently failed.
12:45He is probably somebody that you can start this week and does belong in the same conversation as what we have with
12:52guys such as uh Jaylen Wadd, Denzel Boston, Carnell Tate.
13:00Now, Terry McLaren, the last wide receiver in this tier. I just do not know if Terry McLaren is going to be
13:08playing with without Stefon Diggs. I don't know how healthy Terry's going to be in this game. So, the Washington receivers, I am ranking with a bit of a discount in
13:19here just because I frankly don't know.
13:21Like, we are going to have to update the Washington wide receiver rankings probably in the flex rankings video tomorrow, but again, it's just way too
13:29early for me to know with Terry. Now, the wide receivers that I would prefer to bench if we could would be the wide
13:35receivers 27 and below. Josh DS and the Indianapolis Colts offense project out pretty well this week because they get a great match up against Tennessee.
13:44But with that being said, like Keenan Allen's back, so the target volume has gone down for downs. Abuka is somebody that is in my own lineup. I absolutely
13:55love that he actually came out and gave us a usable week last week with 17 fantasy points, but this dude is
14:02laughably inefficient. Like right now, he is averaging 1.27 27 yards per route run. And I want to say that he is bad.
14:11The offense is horrific. So, he's in my lineup. I tried to do everything that I could to trade him away. I I wish I did
14:19not have to play him. And again, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense, while Jaylen Daniels showed signs of life against a very easy Dallas Cowboys
14:27defense last week, this week against Pittsburgh, they project to be the same offense as what you have with the Cleveland Browns and like a slightly
14:35worse than the Tennessee Titans. Now, the worst offense in the league this week, according to projections, will be the Los Angeles Chargers playing in
14:46Kansas City. They are eight and a half point favorites. They project to only score 16 and a half fantasy points. Now,
14:51Lad Mani has been at practice. I'm going to assume that he is the wide receiver one in a game in which the Chargers are
14:57going to be forced to throw the ball, but he hasn't been healthy. I don't know exactly how healthy he is going to be.
15:03So, I would rather bench him if we could because again, this offense projects out horribly. Now, I am starting Igbuka on
15:10my own team this week and I'm going up against Lad. So, I really hope I smashes lad, but I think they're going to be
15:16about the same. Now, going over to Stefon Diggs. It's impossible to know what Digs not at practice. Again, the Washington receivers, it's just TBD. I
15:25don't know how to rank them until we get the Friday practice reports and we can get a better sense of how healthy these
15:31guys are and who's playing. Devon Vele last week was obviously horrific, but that was in a game environment in which you had to go up against one of the
15:41toughest matchups possible against the Minnesota Vikings. The Saints offense should be much much better against the Giants here. And obviously, you still
15:49don't have any signs of life from Jordan Tyson. Roma Dun is trending in the right direction with his target volume. Over
15:56the past three weeks, he has had six, seven, and nine targets. But also this season he's played five games and he's
16:02had one game with eight or more fantasy points scored.
16:06He's averaging eight and a half points per game. So it is difficult for me to get behind Roma Dunce. But obviously the
16:13expectation should be that he does improve assuming we get back in one Mr.
16:20Caleb Williams. Now our next one's going to be from Romeo Dobs. Romeo Dobs's ranking is impossible to make right now because AJ Brown was at practice on
16:31Wednesday and at the same time AJ Brown was at practice on Thursday. Now he was limited in both those practices. But if
16:39he gets in a full practice on Friday, there is a realistic chance here that AJ Brown is actually playing on Sunday,
16:48which if that were to happen, AJ Brown will be a mustart guy. And also in that case, you probably will need to be
16:55benching Romeo Dobs. Now, Kyle Shakir will be our last wide receiver in this tier. Very similar to some of these other names like the New England
17:03Patriots guys, the Washington Commanders guys. It's impossible to know where to rank Shakir and Keon Coleman right now just because we don't have the clarity
17:10with DJ Moore. But we'll be on the lookout for that official report on Friday regarding Moore. I would really only be interested in playing Shakir or
17:18Keon if DJ Moore were to miss. Now going over to our F tier. Again, these are players that I hope are on your bench.
17:25Now, I feel your pain if you're starting them. I'm starting somebody in this tier myself. Jeremy Bernard is an interesting waiverwire pickup, but very similar to
17:34what we talked about with Antonio Williams and Trey Harris last week with these wide receivers that really haven't proven anything at the NFL level. Um,
17:42while they can be interesting waiverwire pickups, while we want to snag them, stash them, and potentially play them in the future, you don't need to be playing
17:49them the first week you pick them up before they show you anything. So, I'll practice a little bit of patience, a
17:56little bit of hesitance here with Jeremy Bernard putting him in this week. Now, Jacobe Meyers, tough matchup playing against the Houston Texans. Obviously,
18:05Brian Thomas is getting phased out here, though, and it looks like Jacobe is the guy that you would want between the two.
18:12Now, moving over to Wandell Robinson.
18:16Wandell Robinson is in my lineup this week. I have Jefferson on by, Jameson Williams on by, and Travis ETN injured.
18:24Hopefully, Jordan Tyson comes back. So, I I need some help here because Jell Robinson I really would prefer avoiding if we could. It is a slightly better
18:35matchup against the Indianapolis Colts this week, but he is second fiddle in what is a garbage offense with garbage quarterback play. Keon Coleman is only
18:45viable if you have no DJ Moore. If DJ Moore plays, you cannot play him. Going over to Kendrick Bourne. Um Kendrick
18:53Bourne is a name that is enticing with no Marvin Harrison. I will say it's not like he saw a massive massive jump up
19:03with his overall um usage last week.
19:06Like he did only play 49% of the snaps against the Detroit Lions, but it did cor tie a season high eight targets for
19:15him and an offense that is going to be forced to throw the ball over and over and over again. Now, Courtland Sutton,
19:22tough matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. He had a touchdown last week.
19:26played 81% of the snaps, but still this is a bad offense, bad matchup. Keenan Allen, he had nine targets this past week. So,
19:35realistically, I actually probably should move Keenan Allen higher. Like, let me see. Is Keenan Allen available on waiverss in my league. There is a world
19:44in which I should entertain the idea of playing Keenan over Juan Del Robinson, which honestly I think I will. Keenan Allen's on waiverss.
19:55I'm gonna pick up Keenan Allen for my own team this week. And I think I'm going to play him over Juan Del Robinson
20:04because this is a similar amount of target volume and it's a much better offense with better projections. So yeah, let me know in the comments
20:12section. Do you think I'll make a mistake if I move Keenan Allen ahead of Wandale in my rankings this week and
20:17decide to play him instead of Wandale?
20:20Then our last tier of guys that you have no business starting, don't start Trey Tucker. Brock Bowers has taken over.
20:25Don't start Dantavian Wigs if Dvont Smith plays. Don't start Mai Limit if Devonte Smith plays. It's a horrific offense. Don't start Godwin second
20:33fiddle in a bad offense. Don't start Ryan Floreno. CD Lamb's healthy. Don't start Quinton Johnston. Lad Maconi is going to play. Don't start Antonio
20:41Williams. Don't start Cleaymond. Don't start Brian Thomas. Don't start Marvin Harrison. But I think that's all I got for you. I really appreciate you. And
20:48please again, if you haven't already, drop a like, subscribe to the channel.
20:50I'm going to be live every single day answering your fantasy football questions until Christmas. And also let me know in the comments section, should
20:57I play Keenan Allen or Wel Robinson this week? Because I'm thinking Keenan. But much love. Appreciate you. And I'll see you out in the live stream later
