Marvin Mims Jr. Still Difficult to Trust Despite Favorable Week 5 Matchup

Saturday, October 10, 9:41 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. could see more playing time Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers, but his limited involvement in the passing game remains a concern. Mims returned from a two-game absence last week and caught one of three targets for 10 yards against San Francisco. He played 27% of Denver's offensive snaps, up from 17% in the season opener, and Pat Bryant (ankle) has since landed on injured reserve. That could open additional opportunities, although Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton remain ahead of Mims, with Troy Franklin also competing for targets. The matchup offers some encouragement. Los Angeles will be without cornerback Donte Jackson (hamstring) and safety Derwin James (hamstring), while Sean Payton is taking back play-calling duties from Davis Webb. Still, Mims has not shown enough receiving involvement to warrant much fantasy consideration. RotoBaller ranks him WR86 for Week 5, leaving him on the bench in all but the deepest leagues.

Skyler Bell News

Skyler Bell Immediately Slots Into Intriguing Role

Friday, October 16, 10:00 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Skyler Bell went from being inactive for four weeks to handling a 61% snap share in his NFL debut last Monday. Bell was active against the Rams in the first place due to the absence of Joshua Palmer (shoulder), but then he ended up occupying an even larger role than anticipated after DJ Moore (shoulder) left the game early. Moore and Palmer are both questionable for Week 6 and beyond, but if they both end up missing time, Bell would instantly get onto the fantasy radar as a low-end WR3/flex in deeper leagues. That ranking alone is enough to justify grabbing Bell off the waiver wire for now. Even if managers can't find a realistic starting lineup spot for him in the short term, he has the ability to be a meaningful contributor full-season, especially if his teammates keep getting hurt.
