Stay Patient With Treylon Burks

ESPN's Turron Davenport encourages fantasy managers to remain patient with Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks.

DeVonta Smith May Not Be A Lock For Weekly Production

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has had two straight strong games with a combined 15 catches on 19 targets for 249 yards and a touchdown, but ESPN's Tim McManus is pumping the brakes on Smith being a weekly lock for solid fantasy production with A.J.

Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle Interchangeable As Miami's WR1

The Miami Dolphins have two wide receivers -- Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle -- that are interchangeable as the WR1 for the team.

Joshua Palmer Should Remain Productive With Keenan Allen Back

ESPN's Lindsey Thiry believes that Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer will remain a viable option when Keenan Allen (hamstring) returns from injury.

Marquise Brown Should Remain Kyler Murray's Top Target

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown should remain quarterback Kyler Murray's No. 1 target moving forward, unless Brown is completely taken out of the game by an opposing defense, writes ESPN's Josh Weinfuss.
