BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith should be started in all leagues this weekend as he could be in store for a big game on Friday evening against the Green Bay Packers.
The current O/U point spread is 48.5, which is one of the higher marks of the week. Given the elite playmakers at their disposal, both Jalen Hurts and Jordan Love could light up the scoresheet on Friday evening in Brazil.

Last season, the Alabama product posted his second straight 1,000 season with seven touchdowns. Smith excelled at getting downfield as he saw 31.0% of the team's air yards last fall with a strong 12.2 average depth of target.
Even though A.J. Brown will continue to serve as the alpha receiver in Philadelphia, Smith is one of the best No.2 options in the sport and should remain in all fantasy lineups throughout the entire season. In favorable matchups like this, he could find a path to outscoring Brown given his big-play ability.
