Luke McCaffrey Could Move Up Depth Chart On Sunday

Friday, October 4, 5:38 PM

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Luke McCaffrey could be deployed as the No.2 wideout on Sunday afternoon with Noah Brown (groin) ruled out. Last week, Brown was deployed alongside Terry McLaurin, which limited McCaffrey's opportunities. However, fantasy managers should expect the Rice product to see regular playing time against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. After tallying a season-high 44 yards in Week 3, McCaffrey took a step back in Week 4 as he caught only one pass. The 23-year-old remains a desperation flex play in 14+ team leagues as he has yet to show much consistency but could enjoy a breakout game with Brown sidelined.

Devaughn Vele Posts 66 Yards In Win Over Falcons

Monday, November 18, 10:12 AM

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Devaughn Vele quietly had a strong performance in the 38-6 blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday in Week 11, although he wasn't on the receiving end of one of rookie quarterback Bo Nix's career-high four touchdown passes. Vele finished with four receptions on five targets for 66 receiving yards. Both his targets and yards were second on the team behind Courtland Sutton. The 26-year-old seventh-rounder out of Utah has had some impressive moments in his first NFL season, and while his 66 yards were his second-highest yardage total of the year, he's also failed to reach 40 yards in five of his seven games. Vele will continue to develop alongside Nix but can't realistically be trusted in starting fantasy lineups as anything more than a boom/bust WR5/flex in deeper leagues.
