BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 8% of Yahoo Leagues
ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell wasn’t on fantasy football radars heading into the 2024 season. However, injuries to Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua have opened the door for Atwell to have fantasy value.
The veteran wide receiver has averaged four receptions on 5.5 targets for 87.5 receiving yards and 10.8 half-point PPR fantasy points per game over the first two weeks, totaling 10.2 in both contests. Furthermore, Atwell’s 3.48 yards per route run average is the second-highest among wide receivers this season (per Fantasy Points Data).

With the bye weeks starting in Week 5, fantasy players need to look for replacement options off the waiver wire. Atwell is the perfect bye-week filler for fantasy players, with A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, or Amon-Ra St. Brown unavailable this upcoming week.
He faces a Green Bay Packers defense that struggled to slow down the Minnesota Vikings passing attack in Week 4. Atwell is a solid WR3 with upside this week. Fantasy players in a pinch should add him off the waiver wire and start him against the Packers.

BALLER MOVE: Don't Add ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's still not a good idea to use a waiver claim or even a bench spot on Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins. He caught all four of his targets for 86 yards last week, but that performance was the exception rather than the rule […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeMario Douglas once again led all Patriots wide receivers in receiving yards this past Sunday.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Legette is coming off a bit of a disappointing game Sunday against the New York Giants.
