Bub Means fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 7 (2024). Our advice on whether you should start or sit Bub Means for fantasy lineups.
BALLER MOVE: Sit in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR67
ANALYSIS: New Orleans Saints wide receiver Bub Means was the 170th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Many non-Saint fans hadn’t heard of him until last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The rookie receiver had one target and zero fantasy points over the first five weeks.
However, Means had five receptions on eight targets for 45 receiving yards, a touchdown, and 13 half-point PPR fantasy points in Week 6. He was Spencer Rattler’s go-to receiver, with Chris Olave leaving the game early with a concussion. Unfortunately, the Saints will be without Olave and Rashid Shaheed (knee) for Thursday night’s matchup against the Denver Broncos.
The Saints are without Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed on TNF.
Bub Means led the rest of the WR room in Week 6 in:
Snaps 50
Targets 8
Receptions 5
Yards 45
TDs 1
While some fantasy players will want to start Means with Olave and Shaheed out of the lineup, the matchup is far from ideal. The Broncos have held wide receivers to only 17.6 fantasy points per game, the fewest in the NFL.
BALLER MOVE: Sit in most leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end RB3 ANALYSIS: So, that was a bit of a surprise. Entering Week 1, there were hints that rookie Kaelon Black was second on San Francisco's running back depth chart, but that wasn't fully confirmed until Jordan James was a healthy scratch. Black not only won the […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end WR2 ANALYSIS: The Jacksonville Jaguars' wide receiver room was one of the most heavily discussed position groups in the fantasy community this offseason. All three wideouts were ranked closely together because some experts punted on the group and preferred not to mess with it, while others […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (ankle) is dealing with an ankle injury he picked up in Week 1. He suffered it in that game, putting up 33.8 PPR fantasy points and easily crushing all other Panthers pass-catchers in productivity. It was a surprising performance. […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Borderline WR2 With Upside ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has an abnormally high drop rate, which isn't great for his potential to earn more targets in his offense. That might not matter much, though. The Lions have a matchup with the Buffalo Bills coming up, […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in deeper 12+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Risky WR3 ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce broke out last season with 47 catches for 1,003 yards and six touchdowns. In the process, he easily led the NFL in yards per reception (minimum 40 receptions) and was one of its premier deep threats. […]
