Cincinnati Bengals

The market has Jermaine Burton correctly valued at an ADP of 217, compared to an overall ECR of 213. Burton is the third best WR on the Bengals, trailing Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Ranked #79 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, he won't usually be a fantasy starter. He's projected to catch 46.8 receptions for 609 yards and 3.8 TDs, which is 17.2% of the total for Bengals WRs. Cincinnati has the 20th-best wide receiver schedule.

As our consensus #7 QB, Joe Burrow is a solid starter, but comes at a significant cost at his ADP of 54. Burrow is expected to earn 10% of his projected 301 fantasy points by rushing. While running is in his wheelhouse, it's not a huge part of his gameplan. Projected for a 2.5 touchdown-to-interception ratio, he isn't not likely to melt down often.

Jake Browning will be watching from the bench as Joe Burrow starts in Cincinnati. As such, he's not worth drafting in all but the deepest of 2QB leagues. Browning is expected to earn 17% of his projected 25 fantasy points by rushing. While not insignificant, it's not a major source of his fantasy value. Projected for 1.5 interceptions compared to 2.2 passing TDs, he has the ability to ruin a fantasy week with multiple picks in a game.

Zack Moss is a fair value at his ADP of 87 as the consensus #96 overall player. Projected to carry the ball 10.9 times and catch 2.0 passes per game, Moss will see the ball enough to be relevant in most leagues. He's the top dog among running backs in Cincinnati, with Chase Brown and Trayveon Williams behind him. Cincinnati has the 12th-best running back schedule.

Chase Brown is a fair value at his ADP of 117 as the consensus #118 overall player. With a projection of 9.6 touches per game (7.2 carries and 2.4 receptions), Brown has limited potential. He's second on Cincinnati's depth chart, behind Zack Moss. The Bengals have the 12th-best running back schedule.

At a projected workload of 2.4 carries and 0.6 receptions per game, Trayveon Williams is not worth spending a draft pick on. He trails both Zack Moss and Chase Brown on the depth chart in Cincinnati.

Ja'marr Chase is worth drafting at his ADP of 4 as the consensus #4 overall player. Chase is the bonafide top receiver on the Bengals, with Tee Higgins and Jermaine Burton behind him. Ranked #3 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, he's the kind of player you build your fantasy team around. He's projected to catch 102.3 receptions for 1,327 yards and 9.2 TDs, which is 37.5% of the total for WRs on the Bengals. Cincinnati has the 20th-best wide receiver schedule.

Tee Higgins is the #2 wide receiver on the Bengals, trailing Ja'Marr Chase. Ranked #22 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, he's an every week starter. He's projected for 1,059 yards and 8.7 TDs on 70.9 receptions, for 26.0% of the total for Bengals WRs. Cincinnati has the 20th-best wide receiver schedule. Higgins is a good value at his ADP of 58 as the consensus #41 overall player.

Andrei Iosivas is not a focus of the the Bengals' offense as their WR4. As the consensus #100 WR, he's only relevant in deep leagues. He's projected for 253 yards and 2.0 TDs on 22.8 receptions, for 8.4% of the workload for Bengals WRs. The Bengals have the 20th-best schedule for wide receivers. Iosivas is a fair value at his ADP of 292 as the consensus #274 overall player.

Charlie Jones is the WR5 on the Bengals. As the consensus #150 WR, he's probably best left for the waiver wire. He is projected to catch 3.8 receptions for 41 yards and 0.3 TDs, which is 1.4% of the workload for Bengals WRs. The Bengals have the 20th-best schedule for wide receivers.

Irwin is not a focus of the the Bengals' offense as their WR6. As the consensus #165 WR, he's not really fantasy-relevant. Irwin is projected for 333 yards and 2.1 TDs on 25.9 receptions, for 9.5% of the workload for Bengals WRs. Cincinnati has the 20th-best schedule for WRs.

Mike Gesicki is projected to catch only 33.0 receptions for 333 yards and 3.7 touchdowns. As our #32 TE, you can do better than drafting Gesicki. Gesicki is a fair value at his ADP of 221 as the consensus #256 overall player. Cincinnati has the worst schedule for TEs.

As the consensus #44, Erick All Jr. is best left on the waiver wire. All is projected to catch 8.6 receptions for 83 yards and 0.7 touchdowns. All will be playing behind Mike Gesicki at TE in Cincinnati.

At rank 46 among tight ends, Tanner Hudson is not worth drafting. Hudson is projected to catch just 22.0 receptions for 197 yards and 1.0 touchdowns. Hudson will struggle for touches with Mike Gesicki and Erick All Jr. ahead of him.

Tanner McLachlan is projected for just 124 yards and 1.0 TDs on 13.0 receptions. As the consensus TE68, McLachlan is not worth drafting. McLachlan will struggle for touches with Mike Gesicki and Erick All Jr. ahead of him.

At a projected workload of 2.6 touches per game (1.7 carries and 0.9 receptions), Chris Evans is safe to leave on the waiver wire. He's behind both Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine on the running back chart for the Bengals.

Tyler Boyd is the #3 wide receiver on the Bengals, behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. As the consensus #49 WR, he will be serviceable most weeks. He's projected for 733 yards and 4.2 TDs on 63.4 receptions, for 24.3% of the workload for Bengals WRs. The Bengals have the 5th-worst wide receiver schedule. Boyd is a fair value at his ADP of 135 as the consensus #122 overall player.

With 5.3 projected touches per game (4.1 rushes and 1.2 catches), Samaje Perine won't be reliable in fantasy. He's second on Cincinnati's depth chart, behind Joe Mixon.

Hayden Hurst is projected for 441 yards and 4.0 TDs on 42.0 receptions. As the consensus #25, Hurst is not worth drafting. Hurst is worth drafting at his ADP of 212 as the consensus #182 overall player. The Bengals have the 8th-worst tight end schedule.

Thomas might see limited usage as the 4th-ranked WR on the Bengals. As the consensus #179 WR, he's not a real fantasy asset. He's projected to catch 5.0 receptions for 54 yards and 0.3 TDs, which is 1.9% of the total for WRs on the Bengals. The Bengals have the 5th-worst schedule for wide receivers.
