BALLER MOVE: Start in 16+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR53
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III has never been a consistent fantasy football asset. The veteran wide receiver is the WR63 for the year, averaging 6.2 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. He has scored single-digit fantasy points in every game until last week’s matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
McCloud caught all three targets for 28 receiving yards and his first touchdown this year, scoring a season-high 11 fantasy points. The veteran wide receiver is a desperation flex option in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints, with Drake London (hip) questionable to play.

The Saints recently traded away their top cornerback, Marshon Lattimore, to the Washington Commanders. More importantly, New Orleans has surrendered 28.2 fantasy points per game to wide receivers, the 12th-most in the NFL.
Fantasy players can start McCloud in deeper leagues as a flex option, especially if London misses the game with the hip injury.
