BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4/WR5
ANALYSIS: The list of reasons Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman isn't worth starting is pretty long. For one, Joe Brady is the offensive coordinator. Brady likes to run the ball and throw it to RB James Cook. When that doesn't work, the Bills usually lose (see last week vs. the Baltimore Ravens).

QB Josh Allen's passing stats are not great with Brady calling the shots. He has yet to crack 300 passing yards this season.
The other reason is Coleman himself. He hasn't made a big impact yet, and other than a few big catches, his impact has been minimal. He also got benched for the first quarter in Week 3 for a disciplinary issue and made a big drop against the Ravens on a dime from Allen.

So he has a few inexcusable mistakes he's made so far. He'll need to build more trust with the quarterback and coaching staff to be able to have consistent success.

He'll continue to get a few opportunities, but it isn't looking great so far. He's worth sitting, though if you're bold, it's an easy matchup with the Houston Texans secondary. With Allen throwing the ball, anything can happen, but you're better off sitting him until he cleans up his issues.

BALLER MOVE: Borderline Start POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/Flex ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane, after being a clear must-start through the first two weeks, is now much more questionable due to the team's offensive situation.

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/Flex ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert is an interesting player to keep your eyes on, but he hasn't done enough yet to justify a start, especially not against the fantastic Pittsburgh Steelers defense in Week 5.

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR6 ANALYSIS: There's still a weird sentiment that Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers should all be considered for starts after the lead receiver suffers an injury.
