Fantasy Football Player Notes

Kupp had arguably his worst game of the season in Week 9 and he finished with 13 targets, 11 catches, and 95 yards. He's an obvious hold with a strong case to be the No. 1 valued fantasy player entering the second half.

This was supposed to be Henderson's smash week. Unfortunately, the lowly Lions wound up playing inspired football and kept things close enough to the point where the Rams weren't in clock-killing mode for the entire second half (as many of us anticipated). Week 7 was Henderson's first performance where he failed to finish as a top-20 PPR back. Better days are ahead and the utilization remains elite.

Through four games Jefferson's target share sits at 13.4%, which isn't that much lower than Robert Woods' 18.7% mark. Jefferson is also out-producing Woods in PPR leagues entering Week 5, which isn't necessarily predictive, but it's noteworthy. The Rams' offense is one to invest in right now. Jefferson is an injury away from WR2 upside.

It was reported on Sunday morning that Matthew Stafford is dealing with nagging injuries, which have likely played a part in the Rams' offensive struggles as of late. OBJ is in line for consistent targets with Robert Woods done for the year, and he saw 10 targets in Week 12 against the Packers. The highlight was a 54-yard touchdown, but Beckham wasn't efficient otherwise. "Selling" him is a bet against his talent at this point in his career. His name value is likely worth more than what his production will be rest-of-season.

Over the Rams' past two games, Higbee has played 100% of the offensive snaps while running a route on 92% of Matthew Stafford's dropbacks. He has an 18.6% target share during this time and is someone to target moving forward.

The Rams are on a bye this week, but Michel should be treated as a top-five handcuff in fantasy football. This includes fantasy managers who don't roster Darrell Henderson. In the one game that Henderson missed this year (Week 3), Michel saw a combined 23 touches.
