BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS:
Fantasy managers should feel confident starting DeVonta Smith this week, despite his disappointing performance in the previous game. Smith is coming off a game where he managed only one catch for -1 yards, but that appears to be in line for a get back game.
The Eagles' offense continues to revolve around explosive plays, and Smith remains a key weapon in their passing attack. Facing the Bengals, who have been vulnerable to opposing wide receivers, Smith should have a prime opportunity to bounce back.
Cincinnati's secondary has allowed several big plays this season, and Smith’s speed and route-running make him an ideal candidate to exploit those weaknesses.
7 Wide Receivers you should trade for in your fantasy leagues - before it's too late:
• Chris Olave
• Josh Downs
• Jayden Reed
• Jaylen Waddle
• DeVonta Smith
• Diontae Johnson
• Demario Douglas— SAL VETRI (@SalVetriDFS) October 23, 2024
Valued as a high-end WR2 this week, Smith's talent and involvement in the Eagles' offense should not be overlooked. He's too integral to the game plan to stay quiet for long, especially in a matchup where the Eagles may need to rely more on their passing game to keep pace with the Bengals’ potent offense.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts has shown the ability to spread the ball around, and Smith is likely to benefit from this approach, particularly after a down week.
Fantasy managers should trust his talent and the potential for a strong rebound game against a favorable matchup.
