Ray-Ray McCloud III fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Ray-Ray McCloud III for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III has eclipsed double-digit PPR points in back-to-back weeks and should be viewed as a WR3 this weekend when he faces the Carolina Panthers.
Through the first three weeks of the campaign, McCloud averaged just three catches in each game with 37.0 yards. However, over the past two weeks, the 27-year-old has tallied six receptions in each game with 111 total yards.

During this stretch, McCloud has seen at least seven targets in every game with a season-high nine targets in last week's match.
This Sunday, he will face the Carolina Panthers who have allowed the 26th-most points to opposing wideouts. Even though he is the No.3 receiver on his team and faces tough target competition on a weekly basis, in a favorable matchup he is a solid WR3 in deeper leagues.

Rashod Bateman - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is about to get a lot more targets, according to Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12 + Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Many fantasy managers, myself included (regrettably), expected new Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel to get wide receiver Quentin Johnston more involved on plays where he could utilize his skill set -- running after the catch -- better. That didn't happen in Week […]

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. He played 91 percent […]

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. Then 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) had surgery to correct his PCL issues and was ruled out for the […]
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.
