Chimere Dike an Interesting Deep-League Dart Throw

Friday, November 13, 4:06 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike put up the best offensive performance of his young career in Week 9 at Cincy, catching five of six targets for 71 yards and his first receiving touchdown of the season. Dike now has 11 catches for 124 yards and a touchdown on just 14 targets this year, so one game obviously isn't enough to establish a dependable fantasy role. However, this week gives him a legitimate opportunity to build on it. Carnell Tate has been ruled out, and while Dike is listed as Calvin Ridley's backup on the depth chart, he played 82% of offensive snaps last week compared to 52% for Ridley. Dike remains very risky for standard fantasy lineups, but managers in deeper leagues should at least take notice after his performance before the bye. He's a boom-or-bust flex option and an intriguing DFS play rather than a conventional start.

Barion Brown Could Operate as a Starter After Strong Camp

Wednesday, September 9, 7:05 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Barion Brown could get into the starting lineup for Week 1 against the Detroit Lions. Brown had a strong camp, and he's in the mix for the No. 3 receiver role (and a starting job) after the Saints placed rookie Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) on injured reserve. As it stands, Brown projects as the third receiver behind Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele, although he's also likely behind Juwan Johnson in the pecking order. Nevertheless, the rookie out of LSU caught four passes for 53 yards during the preseason, and he proved that he deserves more opportunities than fellow rookie Bryce Lance. Whether or not Brown's No. 3 receiver role is enough to get him on the fantasy radar remains to be seen, but he is definitely trending up as the Saints look to distribute Tyson's temporarily vacated targets. He's an intriguing player to stash for the first few weeks in 14+ team leagues.
