Calvin Ridley is Nearly Impossible to Trust in Week 5

Friday, October 9, 6:40 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley has done almost nothing on offense through the first four games of the season. Heading into Week 5, Ridley has recorded three of his five targets for 48 yards and zero touchdowns. He'll now draw a tough matchup against the Houston Texans defense in Week 5. It's clear that Ridley isn't going to be a big part of the offense with Carnell Tate (back) and Wan'Dale Robinson being the primary options in the passing game. Ridley is probably worth holding in deep leagues, but he's not someone that should be trusted in starting lineups right now.

Darnell Mooney's Volume a Concern Against Vulnerable Cardinals Secondary

Saturday, October 3, 6:36 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darnell Mooney has caught six of eight targets for 95 yards in three full games this season. With a healthy Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely, Mooney's target volume hasn't been high. In those three games, Matt Nagy's Giants offense ranks 28th in pass attempts and 30th in pass rate over expected, and with backup quarterback Jameis Winston in the lineup, the team may lean even more on the run. Mooney faces an Arizona Cardinals secondary that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. With Cardinals cornerbacks Will Johnson (neck) and Garrett Williams (achilles) ruled out and Max Melton (toe) questionable, Mooney and the Giants' receivers should be able to produce. However, the team's run-heavy system and Mooney's lack of targets should keep him out of fantasy lineups despite the favorable matchup.
