Fantasy Football Trade Advice
Tank Bigsby was the standout in the backfield, rushing for 73 yards on 12 carries, including a 26-yard run, averaging an impressive 6.1 yards per carry. Travis Etienne also saw 12 carries but found less success, managing 44 yards at 3.7 yards per carry, with a long run of 11 yards. He scored and came close to a second TD but fumbled it through the end zone for a touchback. But Etienne earned all the red-zone carries for Jacksonville (4). He still has a stranglehold on the high-value touches in the Jaguars backfield and overall work (70% snap share). Give credit to Bigsby, who looked nothing like his rookie self. Definitely will be seeing a decent chunk of the carries in Jacksonville this season. Bigsby played 32% of the snaps. Still I don’t think Etienne’s RB1 role is in jeopardy. Would buy low from a panicked manager
Mark Andrews was a non-factor in the opener, catching two passes for 14 yards on two targets (5% target share). It was one if not the worst performance Andrews has had in the NFL. And it’s why he’s such a great buy-low target. He was blanketed and double-covered constantly, in a horrible matchup against a Steve Spangulo defense that has shut down Andrews every single time they have played. In 5 games versus the Chiefs, Andrews has gone over 22 yards and three catches once with zero TDs in all contests.
Nico Collins led the way with 6 catches on 8 targets (25% target share) for 117 yards, including 18 yards after the catch (YAC). Posted a team-high 27% target rate while finishing third in routes run (84%). Also led the Texans in air yards at 130 and air yards share (49%).
What I might have overlooked in my Collins fade this offseason was the fact that he actually broke last season. Again, he was being drafted behind players that were all projection. Collins certainly had ambiguity regarding targets, etc., but I’m not sure how much more of the talent we need to see from him to be convinced he’s just going to be a great WR in this offense. He’s a human highlight reel.
Consider this stat from Next Gen Stats: Stroud’s 55-yard pass to Nico Collins had a completion probability of 16.6%, Stroud’s most improbable completion his NFL career.
I’m sure Collins won’t always be the most consistent receiver in the Texans offense, but he the highs he can deliver (like Week 1) make it worth it. Buy high.
