Cincinnati Bengals

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.

With 0.0 projected touches per game (0.0 rushes and 0.0 catches), Pooka Williams Jr. is not worth spending a draft pick on. He trails both Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine on the Bengals' depth chart.

At a projected workload of 0.2 carries and 0.2 receptions per game, Trayveon Williams is safe to leave on the waiver wire. He's behind both Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine on the running back chart in Cincinnati.

As the consensus #74, Drew Sample is best left on the waiver wire. Sample is projected to catch only 10.6 receptions for 104 yards and 0.8 touchdowns. Sample will be playing behind Hayden Hurst at TE in Cincinnati.

Ja'marr Chase is worth drafting at his ADP of 10 as the consensus #12 overall player. Chase is the top target on the Bengals, with Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd behind him. Ranked #3 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, you will not be disappointed with him on your team. He's projected to catch 91.7 receptions for 1,414 yards and 10.5 TDs, which is 35.2% of the workload for WRs on the Bengals. Cincinnati has the 5th-worst schedule for WRs.

At QB7, Joe Burrow is a strong starger, but won't come particularly cheap with an ADP in the 5th round. Burrow is projected to earn 32.0 of his 324 fantasy points by rushing. While that's a nice bonus, it's not a major source of his fantasy value. Projected for a 2.5 touchdown-to-interception ratio, Burrow isn't not likely to melt down often.

The market has Joe Mixon correctly valued at an ADP of 9, compared to an overall ECR of 6. Projected to touch the ball 20.9 times per game (17.9 rushes and 2.9 receptions), Mixon is a locked-and-loaded stud. He's the top dog among running backs in Cincinnati, with Samaje Perine and Chris Evans behind him. The Bengals have the 8th-worst running back schedule.

The market has Tee Higgins correctly valued at an ADP of 35, compared to an overall ECR of 29. Higgins is the #2 wide receiver on the Bengals, trailing Ja'Marr Chase. As the consensus #11 WR, he's an every week starter. He's projected for 1,187 yards and 7.8 TDs on 85.1 receptions, which is 32.6% of the total for Bengals WRs. Cincinnati has the 5th-worst schedule for wide receivers.

Morgan might see limited usage as the 7th-ranked WR on the Bengals. Ranked #237 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, he's not worth a draft pick in most leagues. He's projected for 16 yards and 0.1 TDs on 1.4 receptions, which is 0.5% of the workload for WRs on the Bengals. The Bengals have the 8th-worst schedule for wide receivers.

Taylor is the WR6 on the Bengals. At #229 in our WR rankings, he's not a real fantasy asset. He's projected to catch 3.9 receptions for 40 yards and 0.2 TDs, which is 1.4% of the workload for WRs on the Bengals. The Bengals have the 8th-worst schedule for WRs.

As our #114 TE, Mason Schreck is not someone you want to start in fantasy. Schreck is projected for only 37 yards and 0.3 TDs on 3.5 receptions. Schreck will struggle for touches with C.J. Uzomah and Drew Sample ahead of him.

As our #113 TE, you can do better than drafting Mitchell Wilcox. Wilcox is projected to catch just 0 receptions for 0 yards and 0 touchdowns. Wilcox is not Joe Burrow's first or even second choice at tight end, with C.J. Uzomah and Drew Sample on the roster.

As the consensus #88, Thaddeus Moss is not someone you want to start in fantasy. Moss is projected to catch only 13.0 receptions for 121 yards and 1.0 touchdowns. Moss is not Joe Burrow's first or even second choice at tight end, with C.J. Uzomah and Drew Sample on the roster.

Tate might see limited usage as the 4th-ranked WR on the Bengals. Ranked #125 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, he's only relevant in deep leagues. Tate is projected to catch 21.6 receptions for 275 yards and 1.4 TDs, which is 7.9% of the total for Bengals WRs. Cincinnati has the 8th-worst schedule for wide receivers.

C.j. Uzomah is projected for just 336 yards and 2.9 TDs on 34.0 receptions. As the consensus #42, you can do better than drafting Uzomah. As the consensus #337 overall player, Uzomah is a reasonable pick at his ADP of 360. Cincinnati has the 17th-best schedule for tight ends.

As the consensus #223 overall player, Giovani Bernard is a reasonable pick at his ADP of 252. With a projection of 6.6 touches per game (4.8 carries and 1.8 receptions), Bernard won't be reliable in fantasy. He's second on Cincinnati's depth chart, behind Joe Mixon. Cincinnati has the 13th-best schedule for running backs.
