Week 4 of the fantasy football season is underway and despite a limited set of data, it is okay to consider benching players with name value. We often hear the phrase "start your studs" and it is a tried and true method, especially earlier in the season. When injuries, tough matchups, and/or questionable team situations arise, we must adjust. Today, I'll be looking at Jared Goff, Joe Mixon, and Michael Thomas.This may be difficult to stomach benching a player drafted within the top 100 for a ...

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas drew another nine targets in the Week 3 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Thomas has consistently drawn targets in the short field, catching six passes for 50 yards this week. Every week, he has had between eight and nine targets, five to seven receptions, and between 50-61 yards. Thomas has failed to find the end zone yet this season. He is a reliable flex option with a safe floor in PPR leagues, but has a limited ceiling.

New Orleans Saints veteran wide receiver Michael Thomas has regained a role in the offense over the first two weeks of the season, hauling in 12 receptions on 17 targets for 116 yards. Thomas has seen consistent usage, making him an attractive FLEX option for Week 3 against a Green Bay defense that has been hit-or-miss. While the game is likely to be a lower-scoring affair, Thomas should deliver due to his consistent volume. Fire him up in Week 3 but be cautious that he could be held without a ...

New Orleans Saints veteran receiver Michael Thomas was targeted early and often in the Week 2 win over the Carolina Panthers on Monday night. Thomas drew nine targets, catching seven of them for 55 yards. The 30-year-old should be startable as long as he is healthy in PPR leagues if he continues to draw high volume like he has throughout the first two weeks. He has built chemistry with quarterback Derek Carr and is finally healthy for the first time in two seasons.

New Orleans Saints veteran wide receiver Michael Thomas looked great in his return to the field in Week 1, earning eight targets. With Derek Carr consistently looking his way, Thomas should be in play as a FLEX option for the rest of the season as long as he is healthy. While the Week 2 matchup against the Carolina Panthers is anticipated to be low scoring, Thomas should still see enough volume to capture a respectable fantasy outing. Consider him for your FLEX this week, as he is in WR3 ...

Just like that, the 2023 NFL season is officially underway. There were quite a few unexpected performances in Week 1 and plenty of devastating injuries. As we head into Week 2, it's important to relax and not get too overwhelmed reading into everything that just happened. Fantasy players always tend to overreact to numbers and utilization early on in the season.Because of this, we can gain an edge by sending out some trade offers that capitalize on the players who outperformed expectations and ...

New Orleans Saints veteran receiver Michael Thomas was back on the field Sunday after missing a large amount of the past two seasons with various injuries. Thomas was targeted eight times, grabbing five receptions for 61 yards. He had a 24% target share in the Week 1 victory over Tennessee. Thomas moved like his old self, which was very encouraging for Saints fans and fantasy owners to see. As long as he is healthy, Thomas should be slotted into lineups weekly going forward. The Saints' passing...

New Orleans Saints veteran receiver Michael Thomas has played three games in the past two seasons, battling numerous injuries along the way, but finally claims to be healthy. The 30-year-old receiver was a late-round selection in fantasy drafts this season due to his inability to be on the field, but when he did play last season he was still very good and looked like his record-setting 2019 self. With Olave likely garnering the attention of opposing teams' top cornerback, Thomas could have the ...

The Tennessee Titans defense has a talented front seven headlined by defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons and outside linebacker Harold Landry, but its secondary has struggled mightily in each of the last three seasons. Derek Carr leads the new-look New Orleans Saints offense featuring Jamaal Williams, Chris Olave, Michael Thomas, and Rashid Shaheed, so Tennessee's fantasy defense/special teams unit isn't an attractive streaming option in Week 1. Tennessee added edge rusher Arden Key, ...
