Matchups We Love:

Alvin Kamara (RB, NO)

Kamara's positive touchdown regression was due, but three touchdowns in one game is impressive. What's noteworthy is that two of them were through the air, which is bound to continue because the Saints are still dealing with an injured receiving corps, including Michael Thomas, whose season is over. Kamara's volume as a receiver makes him a must-start.

Chris Olave (WR, NO)

As mentioned above, Thomas is done for the year, so Olave will remain the No. 1 option, even once Jarvis Landry returns. Olave was disappointing against the Raiders because they were up 17 points at halftime and stopped throwing the ball. The Ravens will undoubtedly score more points, forcing the Saints to throw the ball more, leading to a better day for Olave, who is in the top 24.

Jarvis Landry (WR, NO)

UPDATE 11/7 at 7 pm: Landry has officially been ruled out.

Landry has been listed as questionable for Monday's game. If he is able to suit up, he becomes a flex option, especially in full-PPR formats.

Matchups We Hate:

Andy Dalton (QB, NO)

Dalton finished as the QB14 last week facing one of the easiest pass defenses. Furthermore, both his touchdowns came on dump-offs to Kamara. The Ravens pose a more difficult challenge and it's unlikely he has the same good fortune this week, making him a risky streamer.

Other Matchups:

Lamar Jackson (QB, BAL)

Jackson is an incredible athlete, however, he still needs weapons to throw the ball to. He managed to grind out a win and finish as the QB8 without Mark Andrews or Rashod Bateman last week, mostly thanks to rookie tight end Isaiah Likely. Jackson is still a must-start but his ceiling drops without Bateman and would take a massive hit without Andrews.

Isaiah Likely (TE, BAL)

Likely blew up for last week with six catches for 77 yards and a touchdown without Andrews. He'll have the opportunity to assume this role again as Andrews has been ruled out. He offers about 80% of the value Andrews does, which equates to a top-12 tight end.

Taysom Hill (TE, NO)

On the other side of the field, Hill continues to find the end zone despite limited touches, keeping him on the radar as an upside streaming option.

Kenyan Drake (RB, BAL)

The easiest path to success against New Orleans is through the air. It's also still a committee in the backfield with Gus Edwards, when healthy, Kenyan Drake, and Justice Hill. Since Edwards is doubtful to suit up, Drake would be the next in line. As the projected starter he is a volume-based top-36 back with touchdown upside.

Devin Duvernay (WR, BAL)

With so few weapons healthy for the Ravens, Duvernay steps into the No. 1 receiver role. He's not been a high-volume receiver, although there could be an increase in targets because of the opportunity. He probably needs a touchdown to have a good game, making him a flex option with touchdown upside.

Injuries:

Mark Ingram II (knee)
Jarvis Landry (ankle)
Gus Edwards (hamstring)
Mark Andrews (back)
