BALLER MOVE: Start in Superflex Formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end QB2
ANALYSIS: Making his first start since Week 3 of the 2022 season, Jameis Winston looked solid under center. He threw for 334 yards and three touchdowns en route to a QB10 fantasy finish. That strong fantasy performance made Winston a popular waiver wire add in Superflex formats earlier in the week.

However, he'll enter Week 9 as a low-end QB2 option against the Chargers. Los Angeles has given up the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season, and that secondary has not allowed more than 250 pass yards to a quarterback in six straight games.
As a result, Winston will be a riskier option in Superflex formats this weekend. The Chargers have allowed only six pass touchdowns through eight weeks while giving up 210 pass yards per game. So, the Browns quarterback could struggle through the air in Week 9.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
