Tyjae Spears fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Tyjae Spears for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: While Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears was seen as a breakout candidate coming into the 2024 season, good fantasy numbers haven't materialized, and it's been lead back Tony Pollard that's taken a majority of the touches.
While head coach Brian Callahan has expressed a desire to get Spears more involved, that hasn't turned into more production. Spears did have 15 carries in Week 4 but turned that into just 39 yards, though he did score a rushing touchdown. Pollard was much more efficient, with 22 carries for 88 yards and a touchdown.
For now, Pollard remains the clear lead back, and it's been that way since the start of the season. The Titans are unlikely to have 37 rush attempts between their top two backs most games. They faced a bad offense (Miami Dolphins without Tua Tagovailoa) in Week 4. For now, Spears' volume will probably remain too low to be fantasy relevant.
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. […]
