BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: We all know the top-three guys walking around Baltimore these days, one per skill position: TE Mark Andrews, WR Marquise Brown, and RB Mark Ingram. Well, while Andrews was the best Raven in Week 1, it turns out that both Ingram and Brown were outperformed by JK Dobbins... and Willie Snead IV (!) respectively. This could be a fluke, sure, but it is not that Baltimore has a lot of options to throw the ball too so Snead might turn into a weekly source of fantasy points.
Snead kicked the season off with a 16.4 PPR performance that came via four catches on four targets (only one of five receivers with a 100% catch rate while seeing 4+ targets) for 64 yards and a score. Only Andrews and Brown beat Snead in receptions with five each, but they needed six targets to get there compared to Snead's four on the day.
To have Snead logging four targets is nothing otherworldly, but his workload has gone up from his 2.8 target average last season while playing a full 16-game schedule already. This match marked the best game from Snead in the past year, as he topped at 15.4 PPR points in 2019 Week 12. It's not that Snead will turn into the go-to option for Lamar Jackson, but if you're in a deep league Snead can very well be a nice weekly FLEX play.
