Should I Start Odell Beckham Jr. for Fantasy Football?
Last week, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. caught his second touchdown as a member of the team, hauling in a 40-yard touchdown reception. However, it was Beckham's only reception. He was targeted just twice in the contest.
Beckham played just 33% of the team's snaps in the 33-31 loss to the Browns. Among the team's wide receivers, that trailed Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, and Nelson Agholor. Beckham has upside as he's scored touchdowns in back-to-back games, but overall he's a risky WR4/5 play this week.
He is the WR53 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
Should I Start David Njoku for Fantasy Football?
Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku has had a strong three-game stretch. Last week, he was targeted nine times, catching six passes for 58 yards. In the two games before that, he caught touchdowns.
The Browns will start Dorian Thompson-Robinson at QB this week, something that could impact the upside of this offense. However, Njoku had a solid day in DTR's first NFL start, catching six of his seven targets for 46 yards. He led the Browns in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in that game. Expect him to see plenty of usage in that, making him a high-end TE2 option.
He is the TE13 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
Should I Start Rashee Rice for Fantasy Football?
Rashee Rice caught his fourth touchdown pass of the season in the most recent Chiefs game, a 21-14 win over the Dolphins in Germany back in Week 9. However, he also finished with a season-low 17 yards and tied his low for targets and receptions with two.
Still, Rice appears to be developing into one of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' favorite targets. The trust he's earned in the red zone and the fact that he's posted his three highest snap rates in the past three games showcases that. Consider Rice to be a solid WR3 play this week with touchdown upside.
He is the WR30 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
