Two thirds of drafted wide receivers never post a single 80 target season...Not ONE of them was ever fantasy relevant.
Round 1 WRs: 1.746 points per target (PPR)
Day 3 WRs: 1.703
The talent gap you think you're drafting isn't there. The ACCESS gap is everything. Earn snaps. Earn targets. Earn fantasy relevance.
Check out my newest article on The Lab @TheLab_FBB
It mirrors my running back article from a few weeks ago, but you'll read why it's a completely different story for receivers. Come see why 80 targets is a door that wide receivers MUST get through to find any success in the NFL, and especially for your fantasy teams. I dive deep into that data, and more, and tell you exactly who's worth drafting, and who's worth leaving behind. Check it out!⬇️

With Lamar out Huntley is my QB11 in 4 pt pass TD and QB16 in 6 pt. Worth a spot start consideration if you stream QB
Doing start/sit questions a bit earlier this weekend. I’ll answer each in 3 parts:
1. Who’s the simple start, best projection
2. Who has the highest ceiling, if you need a massive game
3. Who has the best floor, if you need to avoid a zero
We model each, so send your questions!
Week 7 TE Start/Sits🧵
Starts:
✅ T.J. Hockenson - Great matchup, solid target share. TE9 per my model this week.
✅ Dalton Schultz - 3rd highest implied point total. Projected 6.2 targets. Solid start.
✅ Harold Fannin Jr. - Matchup is fantastic. Targets w/ opportunity.
Week 7 WR Start/Sits🧵
Starts:
✅ Tee Higgins - He’s had some off weeks but this is projected to be a great one. 8.3 projected tgts, great ceiling.
✅ KC Concepcion - Flex start. WR31 in my model this week. Big ceiling against the Titans.
✅ Jalen Coker - Targets galore. High implied point total. WR24 but safer than projection.
✅ BONUS: If he plays…Devonta Smith - Some say the Eagles are in ruins…but not Devonta! He’s going to get the targets, has a massive ceiling
Week 7 RB Start/Sits🧵
Starts:
✅ Aaron Jones - Shocked me at RB7 in PPR. Projected 18.8 carries. Safer than his floor and often finishes higher within his range this week (9-26 points).
✅ Chuba Hubbard - He’s becoming automatic. RB15 in PPR per my model this week. Average run defense, he’ll get plenty of usage.
✅ Woody Marks - Great matchup and safer than his projection, typically finishes at top of his range (6-24 pts)
Week 7 QB Start/Sits:
Starts:
✅ Matthew Stafford - Even without some of his best weapons, hes QB7. 4th highest implied pt total. Solid ceiling.
✅ Aaron Rodgers - Let’s do it! QB8 for the Paris game. Lots of projected attempts. 43% shot at top-12 week. Fine ceiling, solid floor.
✅ Deshaun Watson - He’s playing against the Titans, that’s pretty much all you need to know.

This is a great reminder that we may need to start viewing elite TEs differently in fantasy.
Guys like Brock Bowers and Trey McBride aren’t just giving you a positional advantage over the TE field — they’re producing in the same range as high-end WRs.
If NFL defenses are going to be scheming differently (11-B), maybe fantasy managers should stop thinking strictly in terms of WR/WR/TE/Flex and start thinking of those spots more like (WR/TE) x4
Because if an elite TE is earning targets and scoring points like a top receiver while also separating from the rest of the TE pool, that’s not just positional scarcity.
That’s a premium pass-catcher with a built-in weekly edge. Maybe the real lesson is this:
We shouldn’t only tier TEs against TEs.
We should be tiering them with WRs to make better draft decisions.
HUGE shoutout to @TheDeltaDuo for putting the scatter plot together 🧠
Targets vs. PPG for WRs through Week 6
The difference between the 2 Browns rookie WRs is plain to see. Concepcion gets the targets, Boston gets the big yardage plays. Concepcion will be more valuable in the long run. Something to keep in mind.
That Loveland TD hits real nice after something like this…😎

Loved answering all the Start/Sit Questions today!! For those I didn't get to, I'm so sorry! Every week I'll answer as many as I can, but don't forget to check out the Start/Sit tool on my website! You can compare player projections, as well as their floors and ceilings!👇

Clear the field
Bring the teams back on the sideline
We still have :01 on the clock for BYU/ND
