BALLER MOVE: Bench in almost all formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: FLEX in Deep Leagues Only
ANALYSIS: The Vikings couldn't be more thrilled with the production they've received from Jalen Nailor in the first three weeks of the season. Nailor has a touchdown in all three games for Minnesota and is tied for the league lead in receiving touchdowns.
Names we didn’t expect to be tied for the league high in Receiving TD’s after 3 weeks:
- Jalen Nailor
- Quentin Johnston
- Andrei Iosivas
- Jauan Jennings
- Allen Lazard— Upside Play (@TheUpsidePlay) September 25, 2024
Here's the big problem. The Vikings were without Jordan Addison for those games and Addison is set to return to the lineup this week. While Nailor should still see some action in three-receiver sets, he's going to be a very risky play as Justin Jefferson and Addison are going to demand targets first.
Sam Darnold and this offense have been great, as this team is off to an impressive 3-0 start. However, Nailor is just too dicey of an option for any standard-sized leagues with Addison back. He's an emergency FLEX option for deeper formats if you have no one else to turn to on your roster.
