Hey!
We’re officially in the part of the season where roles change fast, and that’s where the biggest edges appear.
Here are 3 players whose usage makes them must–start options right now:
#3 Jakobi Meyers - the Jags new WR1
Meyers just posted his best game of the season: 6 catches for 90 yards and 1 TD. Meanwhile Brian Thomas Jr. managed only 28 yards.
With Parker Washington getting hurt, Meyers played 92% of the snaps and over his last 3 games as a full–time starter for the Jags, he’s averaging 13+ fantasy points.
He looks like the new WR1 in Jacksonville, start him every week…
#2 Bucky Irving - fully back, fully featured
In his first game back from injury Bucky saw 19 touches, 81 total yards and a TD.
He handled 73% of the opportunities, Rachaad White & Sean Tucker were non-factors.
Earlier in the season, Bucky was scoring 15+ fantasy points on big volume. Now he gets Saints, Falcons, Panthers, and Dolphins during the fantasy playoffs.
He’s right back in the RB1 conversation…
#1 Kyle Monangai - the role you want in this offense
Monangai just ripped the Eagles for 22 carries, 130 yards and a TD.
Even with Swift active, Monangai led the backfield in opportunities (23 of 43). And over his last 5 games, he’s averaging 14 fantasy points.
He’s taken over the old Jamaal Williams / David Montgomery role in Ben Johnson’s offense. Treat him as a high-end RB2 with massive TD upside…
