Demarcus Robinson fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 2 (2024). Should you start or sit Demarcus Robinson for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 16+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR50
ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson was a popular waiver wire target after the team’s Week 1 loss to the Detroit Lions. The Rams lost the game and star wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) for at least the next four contests, leaving Robinson and Tyler Johnson to compete for targets opposite Cooper Kupp.
The veteran wide receiver scored 6.2 half-point PPR fantasy points last week, totaling four receptions on seven targets for 42 receiving yards. Last year, Robinson was the WR12 from Week 13 through Week 17 despite playing with a healthy Nacua and Kupp, averaging 13.3 fantasy points per game.
While his performance in Week 1 wasn’t eye-popping, the veteran played well. Robinson was one of the top wide receivers in separation and route win rate last week among qualifying players.
Demarcus Robinson should be the WR2 for LAR
(as long as Puka Nacua is out)Week 1 among 78 qual WRs
(per @FantasyPtsData)33rd in separation
13th in route win rateLast year, among 125 qual WRs
18th in separation
42nd in route win rateTHESE are eye-opening numbers

Fantasy players in standard-size leagues probably have better options than Robinson on their fantasy football roster. However, he is a solid flex option in deeper leagues. The veteran faces an Arizona Cardinals defense that gave up 152 receiving yards, two touchdowns, and 33.2 fantasy points to an inexperienced Buffalo Bills wide receiver core last week.

Rhamondre Stevenson - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end RB2 ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots' running back room has been heavily analyzed all summer long.

The two saw a similar workload last season until Stevenson […]

Marvin Harrison Jr. - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start as WR3 in 12-Team PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Are NFL fans being too harsh on Marvin Harrison Jr.?
