BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR6
ANALYSIS: New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas was a popular sleeper in the preseason, but his 2024 season has gotten off to a rocky start. Through three games, Douglas has just one game with over 15 receiving yards.
Last week against the 49ers, Douglas was targeted three times, catching all three passes but for only 13 yards. There is no floor for Douglas; there's just a bottomless basement.

In theory, the lack of options in New England means Douglas could have a solid game on occasion, like in Week 3 against the Jets when he caught seven of his nine targets for 69 yards and added nine rushing yards as well.
But in the majority of fantasy leagues, you can't go into this week depending on Douglas to have one of his rare strong games. In a deep PPR league with multiple flex spots, he's in play. Anywhere else, you can find a safer option.
