Episode notes
Roster Darius Slayton For Target Share
- Stash Darius Slayton as a low-risk rest-of-season wide receiver option, especially with Malik Nabers off the field.
- New Orleans ranks bottom-five in catch rate and PPR per target to WRs, making Slayton a viable target share play.
Waiver WRs Rarely Become Team Targets
- Few true breakout WRs remain on waivers; Slayton and Alec Pierce stand out as potential team target leaders.
- Most other available WRs lack a clear path to lead their teams in targets long-term.
Stream Bryce Young Against Dallas
- Add Bryce Young as a streaming QB play, especially against Dallas, who have allowed 24+ fantasy points to QBs in early games.
- Consider Sam Darnold in favorable matchups like Jacksonville as an alternative streamer.
