We've got you completely covered. Quarterback Cam Newton FD 8400 DK 6400 Opponent NYG Proj Points FD - 22.64 DK - 23.28 After an early Week 3 bye, the Panthers return in Week 4 with a cupcake-ish match-up against a 1-3 Giants team with a -22 point differential. Cam comes into this games as the third-best points-per-game fantasy quarterback on the season thanks in large part to what he’s done on the ground. He’s second overall in quarterback rushing yards (despite playing one less game than basically anyone else). He’s averaging a 9/45/1 rushing line per game and has been the primary option in the red zone. He’s also improved on his overall passing efficiency, completing 67% of his passes with five touchdowns through the air through three games. The air stats won’t overwhelm you, but he’s such a consistent fantasy option because of the running attack. We’ll get to McCaffrey shortly, but pairing them in this matchup should provide a high cash floor. The only thing that hurts the Panthers here is the Giants’ slower pace; they allow the third fewest opponent plays per game this season. But Carolina comes in as a home favorite with a 25.5 implied total and an offense heavily concentrated around the QB/RB pairing. Andy Dalton FD 7500 DK 5900 Opponent MIA Proj Points FD - 22.42 DK - 22.37 Don’t look now, but the 3-1 Bengals have scored the fourth-most points in the NFL this season and a big part of the reason is Dalton. He’s tied for second in the league with 11 touchdown passes and, for the first time in quite a while, is working with a fully healthy and competent receiving corps. The combination of AJ Green and Tyler Boyd have a combined 69 targets for 46/646/7. Gone are the days where teams could sit on Green while essentially ignoring the other WRs (and the running game). The Bengals also have impressive wins against the Ravens and Falcons (on...

The year of the 10 target per game wide receiver In the 2017-2018 season there were 4 wide receivers who crossed the 10 targets per game threshold. Through three weeks in the 2018-2019 season, there are 11. There are another 4 who are 1 target shy of averaging 10 targets per game. Lest you think we're just looking at a small sample size and a clustering effect, there were also 4 wide receivers who had 10 targets per game over the first 3 games last year. Last week I broke down the changing face of running back opportunity this season, discussing how we might be witnessing the death of the bell-cow running back. Are we seeing a subsequent rise of the bell-cow wide receiver? If we have access to a seemingly unending supply of cheap highly targeted wide receivers, do the big names become less valuable?
