BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/Flex Play
ANALYSIS: Jerry Jeudy has found more success with Jameis Winston under center for Cleveland compared to Deshaun Watson. However, he has yet to crack 100 yards in a game and has only scored one touchdown.
Jerry Jeudy's first TD with the @Browns!

Cleveland travels to New Orleans this week to take on the Saints. New Orleans has struggled to defend the run but has been more successful at slowing down the opponent's passing game. While the Browns passing offense has had more success with Winston under center, this projects as a game where Cleveland will lean more on Nick Chubb and their ground attack to get the job done.
That means there will not be as much volume to go around, and Jeudy could suffer. He is a fine WR3 or flex play in deeper leagues but is not a recommended option in standard 12-team leagues. The matchup is not great, and Cleveland probably won’t ask Winston to do as much, given the trouble New Orleans has defending the run.
