The Cleveland Browns will play the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football, and three of their pass-catchers are being considered for starting lineups by many fantasy managers.
Cleveland's offense has looked much different with their new quarterback, and many have reconsidered their previous opinions about the passing attack's key players.
Let's break down three of them, and whether you should start them in your fantasy leagues tonight.
Should I Start Jerry Jeudy for Fantasy Football?
This is one of the tougher recommendations to make. The presence of elite cornerback Patrick Surtain II on the defense of the Broncos and his propensity to shadow the other team's best receiver make it hard to trust receivers who play against him. However, Jeudy is well-equipped for this matchup.
Tonight is all about #Browns WR Jerry Jeudy vs elite CB Pat Surtain II
Last week he excelled in an area of weakness (contested, tough catches) vs rising star Joey Porter Jr

He's been knocked for a lack of production this season, but it's hard to play well when your quarterback is Deshaun Watson (Achilles), who was by many metrics the worst QB in the league while he started. Now QB Jameis Winston is slinging the rock, and it's a massive upgrade.
In PPR leagues, it's probably worth it to start him. The offense he's in gives him plenty of upside, and he has the tools to beat even tough man coverage.
Should I Start Elijah Moore for Fantasy Football?
Moore's target numbers have been nice with Winston as the starter, but that hasn't always translated to production. However, the team will be without wide receiver Cedric Tillman (concussion), who is dealing with a concussion and has been declared "Out" for this game.

This should give Moore more opportunities. He's a solid start in PPR leagues with 12 or more teams. We haven't seen the upside yet to have more confidence in him. It's possible he gets a ton of targets, especially if game script favors it. And with the Broncos offense firing on all cylinders, this game could quickly turn into a shootout, which benefits him.
Should I Start David Njoku for Fantasy Football?
He's a fine start this week. He has a ton of talent, and despite only catching one pass last week, still managed to earn five targets. In his last five games before that, he had seven, 14, seven, seven, and nine targets. You have to chase targets with tight ends, especially in PPR, because of the lack of depth at the position.
DAVID NJOKU COULD NOT HANG ON 🤯

Drops suck, but we can forgive them in snow games. He still gets end-zone targets, which is a big plus. You should start him. Don't overthink it.
