Fantasy Football Player Notes

Sutton is the WR34 in fantasy points per game, ranking sixth in deep targets and fourth in red zone targets among wide receivers. Since Week 5, Sutton has had a 22.1% target share, a 37.4% air-yard share, 2.21 YPRR, and a 30.6% first-read share. Since Week 7, the Raiders have moved toward more two high coverage with the fourth-highest rate (60%). Since Week 5, against two high, Sutton has had a 21.1% target share and 27.3% first-read share, but his YPRR has dropped off a table to 0.85. He'll get plenty of volume this week, but it's questionable how efficient he'll be with it. Since Week 6, the Raiders have allowed the second-fewest receiving yards per game and the third-fewest fantasy points per game to perimeter wide receivers.

Since Week 5, Vele has had an 11.8% target share, 1.98 YPRR, and a 14.8% first-read share. He could lead the way for Denver's passing attack this week. Since Week 7, the Raiders have moved toward more two high coverage with the fourth-highest rate (60%). Since Week 5, against two high, his target share has risen to 12.9% with a whopping 3.44 YPRR and a 17.6% first-read share. Since Week 6, the Raiders have allowed the most fantasy points per game and the sixth-most receiving yards per game to slot receivers. Vele is a very strong flex play this week.
