Courtland Sutton is a WR2 with Upside in London Game vs. Jets

Saturday, October 11, 8:36 AM

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.

DK Metcalf A Bounce-Back Candidate Heading Into Week 8

Tuesday, October 21, 9:22 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf was held to just three receptions for 50 yards on five targets in Thursday night's 33-31 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He got off to a fast start, securing a 39-yard deep ball on Pittsburgh's opening drive, but took a backseat to tight end Pat Freiermuth and running back Jaylen Warren for much of the game. His only other memorable moment was a negative one, as Bengals cornerback DJ Turner II ripped the ball from his hands for an interception in the second quarter. Fortunately, Metcalf should be able to get back on track in a favorable Week 8 home matchup against the Green Bay Packers. With quarterback Aaron Rodgers likely motivated to perform against his former team, Metcalf profiles as a low-end WR1 for fantasy purposes.
