Jalen Nailor fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 2 (2024). Should you start or sit Jalen Nailor in your fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: One target in Week 1. That's all you need to know about Minnesota Vikings WR Jalen Nailor for now. Even though it was a touchdown, it's far too early to put Nailor in starting lineups. Unless you're in a 20-team league with 5 WR spots. Maybe not that bad, but Nailor needs more targets to be startable.

He's at least a capable NFL receiver, so that helps. But for now, keep him on the bench. That being said, he's an interesting player to keep an eye on. He showcased an impressive ability to separate in Week 1, and he could become a bigger part of the Vikings' offense.
This is especially true now that Vikings No. 2 WR Jordan Addison is out with an ankle injury that he picked up on a hip-drop tackle (maybe the NFL doesn't plan on actually flagging the play even though it's illegal?), and it's unknown how much time he will miss.

If Addison returns sooner rather than later, we may not see much Nailor fantasy relevance this season, if any. Don't start Nailor this week.

Devaughn Vele - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Vele's performance in Week 1 was shocking. In the absence of WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring), he served as the team's WR2, and caught seven of his nine targets for 69 yards and a touchdown, finishing with 19.9 PPR fantasy points.

Deebo Samuel Sr. - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. was expected to play an ancillary role with his team when he was signed in the offseason.

Caleb Douglas- Start or Sit?
Baller Move: Bench in standard leagues, mid-end FLEX in deeper leagues Positional Value: WR4 Analysis: One of the big mysteries in fantasy football this offseason was how the Miami Dolphins’ offense would look in 2026. Miami signed quarterback Malik Willis to a big contract in free agency, but his pass-catching group was filled with unproven […]
Kaelon Black - Start or Sit?
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 […]
Parker Washington - Start or Sit?
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.
