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.

Keon Coleman Still a Risky Week 4 Play

Saturday, October 3, 7:21 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (ankle) is expected to play Sunday after the injury cost him Wednesday's practice. Coleman was limited Thursday and Friday, but Buffalo did not give him a game designation, and head coach Joe Brady said he would be ready for the Patriots. That removes the availability concern, not the fantasy one. Coleman has eight catches for 101 yards through three games and managed only one reception last week, albeit for 37 yards. The flashes are still there, but dependable volume hasn't followed yet. RotoBaller has him at WR70 for Week 4. With DJ Moore healthy enough to play and Dalton Kincaid commanding a steady role, Coleman remains difficult to trust outside deeper formats even though the ankle shouldn't keep him off the field.
