DK Metcalf Looks to Repeat Success Against Browns

Friday, October 30, 6:30 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf was held to just two receptions in last week's win and will look to get more involved against the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. Cleveland has allowed several big performances to opposing wideouts this season, including one from Metcalf when these teams met in Week 4. Pittsburgh's WR1 finished with five receptions for 115 yards on nine targets, while Roman Wilson (finger) added three catches for 74 yards and a touchdown in the loss. With Wilson and Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) both on injured reserve, Metcalf and rookie Germie Bernard should once again serve as quarterback Aaron Rodgers' top options in the passing game. Metcalf's boom-or-bust production makes him difficult to rely on consistently, but he still offers plenty of upside as a fantasy WR2 in this crucial divisional matchup.

Drake London a Reliable Target-Heavy WR1 Against Bucs

Saturday, October 31, 7:26 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London tallied 10-plus targets in Week 7 for the fourth time in the last five games, making him the team's clear-cut No. 1 option at receiver. The former first-rounder caught seven passes for 66 yards and finally found the end zone for the first time this season. Week 8 brings an interesting challenge with a road matchup against Tampa Bay, one of the most formidable units against the run; however, they've also been good against the pass, holding opposing WRs to the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game, yielding just five touchdown receptions to opposing wideouts through seven contests. Regardless, expect the fifth-year pro to get his regular high dosage of targets in Week 8, which sets him up as a low-end WR1 in half-point PPR leagues.
