Earning at least one more start, Minnesota Vikings backup quarterback Carson Wentz carries some low-end Superflex potential this week against the Cleveland Browns. The veteran has a rough draw, however, as he'll be taking on one of the top defensive lines in football with a patchwork offensive line. Minnesota will play with backup linemen at right tackle, center, and left guard, which isn't ideal for the week in which the Vikings have to deal with Browns superstar defensive end Myles Garrett. In similar circumstances last week, though, Wentz still put up 350 passing yards and a pair of touchdowns. If the Vikings are going to have any chance to win the game, they'll likely need excellent defense and an effective passing game, the latter of which will ask Wentz to post big passing numbers.

Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman may lead the team in total targets through four weeks, but that number is misleading, as nearly half of those opportunities came in the season opener. Since Week 1, Coleman has settled into a smaller role, recording just three catches on four targets in each of the last three games. While he has been reliable when called upon, his inability to create big gains after the catch has limited his fantasy impact. For now, Coleman is best left on benches in most formats, with only low-end flex appeal if his target share rebounds. Fantasy managers should monitor his usage closely in Week 5, but until he's featured more consistently in the passing game, his value remains capped.
Still trying to decide between Wentz and Coleman? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Carson Wentz is projected to score 12.2 points this week while Keon Coleman is projected to score 8.0 points.
