Rashod Bateman May Have Some Flex Appeal in Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 11:13 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is in the midst of quite a rough fantasy season. Outside of his big game against the Detroit Lions, he's scored a total of nine fantasy points in the other five games in half-PPR formats. It turns out that when Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is hurt, there's no one to throw a deep ball to Bateman. In Week 8 against the Chicago Bears, Bateman could have his starting QB back under center with a good matchup in front of him. Nahshon Wright is likely to lineup opposite him, and he's allowed 8.6 yards per target and four touchdowns so far this year. Bateman's value is quite dependent on Jackson playing, so he'll be off the fantasy radar if the two-time MVP can't suit up.

Michael Wilson Not a Trustworthy Option in Week 7

Saturday, October 18, 11:24 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has yet to crack the top 40 at his position through the first six weeks of the season. His Week 6 performance of four catches for 44 yards equated to his best finish of the year at WR41 in half-PPR formats. To make matters worse, his average finish is WR72. In Week 7, he'll take on the Green Bay Packers, who are middle of the pack against the passing game. They have allowed at least one touchdown to opposing receivers in all but one game, but Wilson has only one touchdown in his last nine games played, dating back to last season. With the uncertainty at quarterback as Kyler Murray (foot) is questionable again, fantasy managers can leave Wilson on the waiver wire until something drastic changes.
