Rashid Shaheed fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Rashid Shaheed for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team PPR Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: The New Orleans Saints will be without quarterback Derek Carr this week, instead turning to rookie Spencer Rattler to make his NFL debut. That introduces a ton of uncertainty into the outlook for the entire Saints offense.
Rashid Shaheed has played really well this season outside of one complete stinker against the Eagles. He has 73 or more receiving yards in the other four games and has found the end zone three times already this season.
“Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple games with an oblique injury he suffered against the Chiefs.”
Shaheed's big-play upside can't be ignored, especially with an appealing Week 6 matchup against the Buccaneers on deck. However, Rattler starting at quarterback gives Shaheed a low floor, so fantasy managers who are playing him this weekend should temper their expectations.
Consider Shaheed to be a WR3 with a high ceiling but also a very low floor as well.
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 […]
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. All three wideouts were ranked closely together because some experts punted on the group and preferred not to mess with it, while others […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (ankle) is dealing with an ankle injury he picked up in Week 1. He suffered it in that game, putting up 33.8 PPR fantasy points and easily crushing all other Panthers pass-catchers in productivity. It was a surprising performance. […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Borderline WR2 With Upside ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has an abnormally high drop rate, which isn't great for his potential to earn more targets in his offense. That might not matter much, though. The Lions have a matchup with the Buffalo Bills coming up, […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in deeper 12+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Risky WR3 ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce broke out last season with 47 catches for 1,003 yards and six touchdowns. In the process, he easily led the NFL in yards per reception (minimum 40 receptions) and was one of its premier deep threats. […]
