Here is a complete statistical recap of the Week 5 recommendations: Julio Jones - 7 targets, 3 catches, 42 yards Michael Thomas - 13 targets, 11 catches, 182 yards, ...

Michael Thomas a Must-Start Against Jacksonville in Week 6 rotoballer.com Fri 10/11/19 1:42 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas will look to continue his success against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 6. Thomas currently ranks third in the NFL in targets (55), first in catches (45) and first in receiving yards (543). At this point, he'd be a strong fantasy option with Uncle Rico throwing him footballs. He draws a middling Jaguars Defense that ranks 18th in fantasy points against wide receivers. Pending injury reports, Thomas will likely be shadowed by Jaguars star ...

Jaguars Defense With A Tough Matchup In Week 6 rotoballer.com Fri 10/11/19 11:59 AM

The Jacksonville Jaguars Defense has a tough matchup in Week 6 against the Saints. While New Orleans is still without quarterback Drew Brees (thumb), the team has wide receiver Michael Thomas and running back Alvin Kamara at its disposal. With the Jags Defense struggling on the year by allowing 382 total yards per game, it may be best to look elsewhere for production on Sunday as both Thomas and Kamara can be a nightmare for even the most defensively-sound teams.

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 5 Outliers rotoballer.com Tue 10/8/19 12:09 PM

In Week 5, there were several players that exploded in fantasy lineups, scoring multiple touchdowns. Wide receivers Will Fuller, Michael Thomas, D.J. Chark, Adam Thielen, Chris Godwin and Allen Robinson all had multiple receiving touchdowns and should have been in fantasy lineups in leagues of all sizes. Although these studs had huge performances, Week 5 was likely their ceiling, as you cannot count on a player to score two or more touchdowns on a weekly basis. On the other side of that, Houston...

Michael Thomas Could Shine In Week 5 rotoballer.com Thu 10/3/19 8:51 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas has seen a drop in production with quarterback Teddy Bridgewater at the helm. The 26-year-old has gotten just 16 looks throughout the past two weeks, a 10-target decrease from the first two games of the season. Additionally, he has hauled in only 14 receptions (with one touchdown) in Weeks 3 and 4 combined, while also accumulating just 149 receiving yards during that same span. However, things could turn around for Thomas in Week 5 against a ...

Michael Thomas Grabs Nine Receptions in Week 4 rotoballer.com Sun 9/29/19 11:51 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas was seemingly the only receiver on the team that did anything for the Saints in their victory. He caught all nine of his targets for 95 yards in the 12-10 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Thomas has surprisingly not lost any value since quarterback Drew Brees went down. He continues to be a strong WR1 with Teddy Bridgewater under helm. Thomas should be an elite WR1 next week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Michael Thomas a WR1 in Week 4 rotoballer.com Fri 9/27/19 8:41 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas will look to find the end zone for the second consecutive game when he takes on the Dallas Cowboys at home in Week 4. Thomas didn't have a huge game in Week 3 but he did connect with Teddy Bridgewater for a touchdown. With Bridgewater under center, the targets have really consolidated to either Thomas or running back Alvin Kamara with few little work going to the other pass-catchers. The Cowboys have been more vulnerable against the pass this ...

Michael Thomas Targeted Just Seven Times In Win rotoballer.com Mon 9/23/19 3:57 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas finished with a season-low five receptions (seven targets) for 54 yards and a touchdown during the win over Seattle on Sunday. After compiling 20 catches on 26 looks coming into this one, his decline in attention from quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was somewhat troubling, to say the least. Nonetheless, he is expected to bounce back as he continues to build a rapport with Bridgewater, so now is not the time to sell-low. Keep him rolling against the ...

Michael Thomas Remains Among Top WR Options rotoballer.com Thu 9/19/19 5:34 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas may be missing his starting quarterback, but that shouldn't stop the fourth-year wide receiver from contributing in a potentially juicy Week 3 matchup against Seattle. Teddy Bridgewater peppered Thomas with targets last week after Brees was forced to leave the game due to injury, and there's no reason to believe the game plan will change without the Saints No.1 quarterback under center. Seattle has allowed a downright ugly 575 yards through the air...

Michael Thomas Gets A Healthy Amount Of Looks rotoballer.com Mon 9/16/19 11:59 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas was targeted 13 times for the second week in a row, finishing with 10 receptions for 89 yards during the loss to the Rams. While it is concerning that Thomas wont be catching passes from quarterback Drew Brees (thumb) for at least six weeks, he still saw his fair share of looks from backup Teddy Bridgewater throughout the remainder of the contest. Thomas may see a small decrease in production while the veteran signal-caller is sidelined, but he ...
