Rashid Shaheed Brings Big-Play Upside in Week 2

Saturday, September 13, 1:42 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed was the team's third-most productive pass catcher in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals, finishing with six receptions for 33 yards on nine targets. His longest catch was just 17 yards, but his speed and explosiveness give him real big-play potential. With Kellen Moore's offense passing aggressively, Shaheed could turn his volume into a breakout performance and projects as a WR4 with upside this week against the 49ers.

DeMario Douglas Droppable After Week 2 Dud?

Tuesday, September 16, 3:00 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas converted his lone target into an eight-yard reception during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Miami Dolphins. It has been a quiet start to the year for Douglas, who has just three catches for six yards (plus a touchdown) through two contests so far. He has consistently been operating as the No. 3 wide receiver in New England. He also remains behind Hunter Henry and perhaps Austin Hooper in the pecking order. Douglas' snap share dropped from 63 percent in Week 1 to just 25 percent in Week 2. With a reduced role and limited volume, the 24-year-old can be dropped to waivers in most fantasy football leagues.
