Daniel Carlson May Struggle To Make Impact Yet Again

Alexander Mattison's Pass Catching Upside Makes Him Startable In Deep-Leagues

Zamir White Could Need Positive Game Script To Outproduce Alexander Mattison

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White will need a positive game-script against the Ravens to outproduce his backfield mate Alexander Mattison in Week 2.

Gardner Minshew II Needs To Limit Mistakes, Risky Play For Week 2

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II needs to limit costly mistakes, like fumbles and interceptions, if he wants a victory over the Baltimore Ravens in their Week 2 matchup.

Jakobi Meyers Risky Flex Play Against The Ravens

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is a risky flex play in a tough matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2.
