Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Jerry Jeudy (WR – DEN)

Jerry Jeudy returned and was second in targets (5, 19% target share), going 3 for 25. After it was reported he would not be on a “pitch count” he only played 68% of the snaps, running a route on 85% of dropbacks. Not totally full-time, but pretty close.

Sutton led all receivers in targets (7) and did 5 for 66. They also went to him for the failed two-point conversion after the Hail Mary to Brandon Johnson. Johnson caught one TD earlier.

Backfield was more of a committee again. Perine was slightly more involved as a receiver, where Javonte Williams saw the bulk of rushing work – 12 for 44 yards. Perine out-snapped Williams (50% vs. 45%).
And Denver just HAD to get rookie Jaleel McLaughlin the TD on his lone carry.

Two weeks in, consider me not a fan of the Denver offense. What a mess.
At least Adam Trautman played a full-time role. 82% snap share. But just 69% route participation. Mid usage for a tight end with virtually no targets.

Denver’s got the Dolphins and Bears the next two weeks, so there’s a chance we could see an uptick in offensive production. At this point, I’d still be a buyer of Jeudy. He’s presumably healthy and that was the only reason I shied away from him at the end of the draft season.

Sam LaPorta (TE – DET)

Sam LaPorta strung together another solid outing – 5 for 63 yards on six targets. Runs ALL the routes. Solid weekly floor. 84% route participation was better than in Week 1.

Joshua Kelley (RB – LAC)

Joshua Kelley started but was inefficient versus a top-tier elite run defense. 13 for 39 rushing. Zero pass game usage (1 target) despite a massive workload (79% snap share). He’s a bell cow if Austin Ekeler misses another game, ahead of a juicy matchup versus the Minnesota Vikings who were destroyed versus the running game on Thursday night football.
