BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons wideout Ray-Ray McCloud III earned some preseason hype heading into 2024, but it was tough to believe he'd be involved enough to be on the fantasy football radar. However, the 27-year-old has seen at least five targets in three of his four games and seven targets in two games.
Based on what we've seen thus far, he is firmly ahead of tight end Kyle Pitts in the target pecking order and is just behind wideouts Drake London and Darnell Mooney.
Quarterback Kirk Cousins has supported up to three fantasy-relevant wide receivers in the past, so McCloud is now at least a low-end flex option in deep PPR formats following his best game of the season in Week 4. He caught six of his seven looks for 52 yards, good for a respectable 11.2 PPR points. As bye weeks become a factor, he can fill in as needed.
Darnell Mooney, Ray-Ray McCloud, & Bijan Robinson have nearly double the amount of receptions as Kyle Pitts through 4 weeks...😭 pic.twitter.com/FdpimZTiBu
