Fantasy Football Player Notes

Robinson may have disappointed last year but let's remember that he was coming into a new offense with limited pre-season work due to his significant injury. He missed some time but still led the team in targets and may bounceback to his former WR1 self with a fully healthy season in this up-and-coming offense.

Jordan Howard is now gone after producing for fantasy owners despite lackluster efficiency. Many will take this to mean that the much more talented Montgomery will become a stud from day one, but Mike Davis is in town now too and Tarik Cohen isn't going anywhere so it might not happen quite so quickly.

Cohen got nary a carry in Week 1 against the Packers, instead running routes out of the slot almost exclusively. He'll likely see some more work in the backfield but with Mike Davis also cutting into David Montgomery's role, there isn't that much room for Cohen at this point. He's certainly worth owning in PPR formats, but be wary about starting him for the foreseeable future.

Some are going another wideout here like Dionte Johnson, who is coming off a big game or Allen Hurns, who has a great matchup, but Miller is still my #3 wideout streamer despite his matchup in Green Bay. We are talking about someone with 37 targets and 313 receiving yards over the past four weeks. He has double-digit fantasy points in each of those games too. As long as he keeps rolling, I'll be playing Miller as a strong flex option.

Trubisky has finally gotten rolling, and while he does have a bad matchup on paper this week, the Packers' secondary has been slowing down all season. Trubisky is a classic boom or bust option this week.

The Bears defense hasn't been the defense many thought they'd be this year, and that's not likely going to change over the last two games of the fantasy season. They have games lined up against the Packers and Chiefs, two of the better offenses in the NFL, and teams that don't allow a lot of sacks.

Ginn is by no means an exciting pick, but he is the starting receiver opposite of Michael Thomas in a high-powered offense so he offers some fantasy value as a WR6.
