DeAndre Hopkins is Avoidable Against Rams in Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 10:44 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins was looking like a sleeper pick in deeper leagues when Lamar Jackson (hamstring) found him for some big plays the first couple of weeks. Since then, however, Hopkins has had a combined three receptions for 59 yards in three games and hasn't had a finish better than WR54. Then, we throw Cooper Rush and a defensive unit like the Los Angeles Rams into the mix, and everything gets a lot more bleak. In half-PPR formats, Hopkins is projected as the WR77, so fantasy managers will want to look elsewhere for an option with a higher ceiling in Week 6.

Rashod Bateman Hard to Trust in Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 10:31 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has a chance to be the WR1 this week with Zay Flowers (shoulder) listed as questionable. Unfortunately, that won't move the fantasy value needle too much while Lamar Jackson (hamstring) remains sidelined. In Week 5, he saw three targets, but didn't register a single reception. As long as the offensive line continues to struggle, Bateman isn't likely to see many downfield throws, especially in a simplified offense for Cooper Rush. As of right now, he's projected to finish around WR72 in half-PPR formats, so there are probably better options on the waiver wire for fantasy managers in need of a flex.
