Angles and Upside Week 3 w/ Rich Hribar
STACKED extracted the fantasy-relevant player signal from this video and kept the full transcript here for context.
Player insights
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen is a high-end RB3 who has been highly efficient, ranking RB4 in elusive rating with strong tackle-breaking ability. While he currently faces a tough schedule of run defenses, the source expects him to eventually take over the backfield, though he is currently a touchdown-dependent play.
Insight pageBrenton Strange
Brenton Strange is functioning as the primary underneath target for the Jaguars, with his route participation climbing to 81% last week. He is an interesting, cheap tight end two option for fantasy lineups.
Insight pageBrian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. remains a focal point of the Jaguars' passing attack with a 21% target share and deep aDOT marks ranging from 14.0 to 14.7. He is a legitimate deep threat who demands defensive attention; despite facing elite shadow coverage from Denzel Ward, Patrick Surtain II, and upcoming matchups against Christian Gonzalez, DJ Turner, and Quinyon Mitchell, he is a recommended target for the back half of the season.
Insight pageBucky Irving
Bucky Irving is the clear lead back, commanding 50% of snaps and 54% of team attempts. He is highly efficient, ranking RB10 in EPA success rate and RB4 in elusive rating.
Insight pageChris Rodriguez
Chris Rodriguez Jr. saw his snap share drop from 40% to 22%; he has not been targeted all year and is underperforming with -6 rush yards over expected per game.
Insight pageDe'Von Achane
De'Von Achane is seeing a strong workload with a 21% target share, which grew from 16% in Week 1 to 26% in Week 2. Despite an expected points workload of 24.7 points per PFF, he only scored 12.3; he remains a low-end RB1 and a viable bet for games where the Dolphins are forced to drop back frequently.
Insight pageDrake Maye
Drake Maye is expected to have his most efficient game of the season against the Jaguars, a pass-funnel defense with a weak secondary. The Patriots have shifted to a more pass-heavy approach, and Maye is expected to be a bigger challenge for defenses than Deshaun Watson because he does not hold onto the ball as long.
Insight pageHunter Henry
Hunter Henry saw his route participation jump from 60% to 81% in Week 2, establishing him as a safe fantasy option and a viable DFS stack candidate for the Patriots.
Insight pageJahmyr Gibbs
Jahmyr Gibbs is the current benchmark for expected points per game among running backs, with 25.8 expected points per game per PFF.
Insight pageJakobi Meyers
Jakobi Meyers is struggling to command volume, recording only three targets through two games and target shares of 10% and 3% over the last two weeks. While he is running deep routes with a 19.0 aDOT, he is not being targeted on them, leading to concerns regarding his standing in the offense and his inability to get open.
Insight pageJaleel McLaughlin
Jaleel McLaughlin is an efficient runner who lacks the necessary high-value touches (HVT) and pass-catching volume for fantasy relevance. He is currently a touchdown-dependent RB3 who is often used for pass protection rather than high-value receiving work.
Insight pageKenneth Walker III
Kenneth Walker is a focal point of the offense, leading the NFL in carries through two weeks with a 70% carry share (RB4) and a 21% target share (RB5). His expected points per game of 25.8 rank second only to Jahmyr Gibbs. The source describes his addition as highly significant for the offense, allowing them to exploit defensive leverage by forcing choices between nickel and base packages.
Insight pageLamical Perine
La'Mical Perine saw 17% of snaps and a 4% target share last week, but did not record a carry.
Insight pageMalik Washington
Malik Washington is effectively drawing targets on deep routes alongside Brian Thomas Jr.
Insight pageMalik Willis
Malik Willis is struggling significantly, ranking QB23 in EPA per game and QB31 in success rate. He is holding the ball too long (3.36s time to throw) and suffering from a 43% pressure-to-sack rate, exacerbated by a lack of offensive infrastructure and a low first-read attempt rate. He has also struggled against the blitz, completing only 3 of 11 passes over the first two games.
Insight pageMichael Penix Jr.
Michael Penix Jr. is back on the field, which the source notes was a fun development for the Falcons.
Insight pageParker Washington
Parker Washington is emerging as a key slot weapon for the Jaguars, boasting a 3.93 yards per route run and a 38% target share. He is not just an underneath accumulator but a legitimate field stretcher with a 13.8-17.8 aDOT, making him a primary beneficiary of the slot role.
Insight pageRashee Rice
Rashee Rice remains a productive receiver who is effective with the ball in his hands; he operates primarily out of the slot at a significantly higher rate compared to his teammates.
Insight pageRobert Woods
Robert Woods is identified as a key receiver used in the run game to target linebackers, serving as a tactical example of how offenses create mismatches by removing fullbacks for versatile wide receivers.
Insight pageRomeo Doubs
Romeo Doubs has seen inconsistent route participation (76% in week one, 74% in week two) and lacks a clear-cut focal point role in the offense, competing with Mack Hollins and Demario Douglas for targets.
Insight pageTravis Hunter
Travis Hunter is not yet in a full-time role, playing only 60% of defensive snaps last week as he continues to ramp up from his injury last year.
Insight pageXavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy is evolving beyond a pure deep-threat role, showing intermediate target-earning potential with aDOTs of 7.8 and 6.3. He is also being utilized in screen plays and is a strong candidate for a breakout game against weaker secondaries.
Insight pageZack Moss
Zack Moss is referenced as the veteran back that Chase Brown had to compete with during his breakout season.
