Greg Dortch fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 2 (2024). Should you start or sit Greg Dortch for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-End FLEX
ANALYSIS: Greg Dortch should be a streaming option in PPR formatted fantasy football leagues this week and be viewed as a low-end FLEX as the Cardinals host the Rams.
Greg Dortch has flown under the radar in fantasy football over the last two seasons, but in 2024, he's finally a relevant option after he secured the starting slot receiver role for the Cardinals.
In Week 1, Dortch was second on the team in targets, catching six passes for 47 yards. Despite his involvement and production, Dortch is rostered in just 5% of leagues.
Dortch has consistently seen an increase in targets when quarterback Kyler Murray is healthy. Since 2022, in games where both have played at least 70% of the snaps, Dortch has averaged 14 fantasy points per game.

Looking ahead to Week 2, the Cardinals face the Rams, who are dealing with injuries in an inexperienced secondary. Dortch will likely line up against Rams slot cornerback Quentin Lake, who has been limited in practice all week.
While the Rams managed to slow down Amon-Ra St. Brown in Week 1, that was likely due to the added defensive attention given his All-Pro status. Dortch will not receive that same attention from the Rams defense, and the Cardinals will continue to look for him.
With the Rams’ secondary banged up and Dortch’s strong connection with Murray, he’s a viable flex streaming option in PPR leagues for managers in need.

Jaylen Warren - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start as RB2 in PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: After three seasons as the Steelers' RB2 behind Najee Harris and making zero starts, Jaylen Warren finally took the starting job in 2025 and silenced many of his critics.

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.? The Ohio State product was picked fourth overall in 2024 and had an objectively solid rookie season, which was unfortunately overshadowed by Brian Thomas Jr., Malik Nabers, and Ladd McConkey's outstanding rookie […]
David Montgomery - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: The Houston Texans shelled out a decent amount of cash, for an RB at least, to running back David Montgomery to have him join their team.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Pollard will be the lead back for the Tennessee Titans for yet another season. There may not be much to get excited about.

Quentin Johnston - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Mid-End WR2/High-End WR3 ANALYSIS: The Los Angeles Chargers made an upgrade at offensive coordinator when they hired Mike McDaniel, formerly the head coach of the Miami Dolphins.
