Tim Patrick Headed To Detroit

Tuesday, August 27, 6:33 PM

Former Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick is expected to sign with the Detroit Lions. Patrick did not make the Broncos' final 53-man roster earlier on Tuesday and appears to have found his new home. Patrick has battled injuries in recent years. He has not played since the 2021 season due to a torn ACL in 2022 and a torn Achilles in 2023. Before his injuries, Patrick was productive when healthy. His signing is slightly worrisome for fantasy managers hoping for more production from Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams. However, this could just be a depth move for a Lions team that has several unproven names behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Williams, and Kalif Raymond. Patrick is 30 years old after all and coming off two significant injuries.

Zay Flowers A Solid WR2 Against Raiders

Friday, September 13, 8:50 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers received targets in all sorts of ways in Week 1, but it didn't amount to a touchdown or many yards. His value is at its highest in PPR and half-PPR formats, and that trend is likely to continue against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 2. The main reason he hasn't reached steady WR1 territory is the lack of yards per route run (0.69) and his average depth of target (5.2 yards). With that being said, Flowers ran 48 routes and was targeted 20.8% of the time in those routes. He also has a top-30-rated matchup against the opposing defensive backs according to PFF. Fantasy managers can look toward Flowers to be a solid WR2 in this Week 2 slate.
