Fantasy Football Player Notes

Kenneth Walker had great receiving usage in Week 1...not so much in Week 2. 1 catch for 11 yards on 2 targets. Zach Charbonnet also saw two targets and added four carries for 16 yards. One of which came inside the 5-yard line in the 4th quarter. Wouldn't overly read into this considering Walker scored twice and totaled 7 carries in the red zone. Also maintained his Week 1 snap rate and touch load versus the other backs (18 to 7).
Charbonnet didn't play more but got more work running a route on 22% of dropbacks (24% in Week 1). Walker's routes dropped from 55% to 40%. There's going to be a give-and-take with Walker when it comes to his receiving, but if the trade off is the red-zone usage; it's a net positive. Solid schedule coming up for the Hawks with Carolina, New York, Cincy and Arizona on deck. I would be a buyer of Walker.
As for Charbonnet, he's just a handcuff at this point with little to no standalone value. If you need to make a cut for instant production, he'd be droppable in my eyes in shallower formats. 4.5 touches per game through two weeks. He first entered the game during the team's second drive. Noteworthy that he was the preferred back in the two-minute drill. So, I'd do my best to hold him because he is built with a three down workload that could be MASSIVE if Walker were to get hurt. All in all, keep em stashed.
