Dalton Schultz Developing a Solid PPR Floor

Saturday, October 4, 11:53 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz continues to be a reliable but unspectacular producer in his team's offense, but he does bring some value as a PPR play against the Ravens this week, since quarterback C.J. Stroud continues to lean heavily on him to keep the chains moving. Schultz tied for the team lead with six targets last week and posted a team-high five catches. He only managed 30 yards, though, with his longest play going for nine yards. This season, he has at least three catches in every game but has only totaled 126 yards on his 16 catches. His volume of catches can make him a fill-in play with a high floor as we hit the bye weeks, but his ceiling is limited since his routes are usually short. In RotoBaller's Week 5 projections, Schultz is the No. 15 TE, making him startable in an emergency situation in most formats, even though he doesn't have an elite ceiling.

Xavier Legette News

Xavier Legette has Shaky Value

Friday, October 3, 6:34 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (hamstring) is back in action for the Week 5 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Legette will return this weekend after a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury. The targets have been there for Legette, but the 24-year-old has been unable to make an impact. Through two games, Legette has hauled in four of his 15 targets for eight yards this season. The Panthers offense isn't having much success right now. Legette clearly needs to build more chemistry with quarterback Bryce Young. Legette is worth a stash in certain formats, but isn't worth a start for Week 5.
