Rome Odunze fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Rome Odunze for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze has flashed at times through his rookie campaign but has struggled seeing consistent targets which makes him a WR3 this weekend.
Through the first two weeks of the season, Odunze caught just three passes but saw nine targets. Then, in Week 3, the Washington product enjoyed a breakout performance as he caught six passes for 122 yards and a score.

However, in Week 4 he took a significant step back as he caught only one of his three targets. Last weekend, Odunze saw his targets increase slightly (6) and caught five of them for 40 yards.
With a crowded wide receiver room consisting of DJ Moore and Keenan Allen, Odunze has risk given that he may only see a handful of targets in a single game. However, facing a week Jacksonville defense that has allowed the 31st-most points to opposing wideouts makes the first-round rookie a high-upside WR3 with risk.

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.

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.
