BALLER MOVE: Start in 16+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR6
ANALYSIS: After some disappointing seasons in Denver, former first-round wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is off to Cleveland this season, where he'll battle with Elijah Moore for scraps in an offense that doesn't project to have much upside.
Of course, that could change in a hurry if quarterback Deshaun Watson can return to the level of play he displayed back in his Houston Texans days. Based on his recent play, that isn't particularly likely, but it can't be completely ruled out.

The talent Jeudy showed in college and the possibility—no matter how faint—of a Watson bounceback means Jeudy should certainly be rostered in all 10-team leagues. He might only have 11 touchdowns in four NFL seasons, but he came up just short of 1,000 yards in 2022,
However, a tough Week 1 matchup against the Cowboys isn't the time to be deploying Jeudy in fantasy as anything but a desperation WR5/6 option. Sure, he could have a strong Browns debut, but it isn't worth the risk for your fantasy squad.
