Fantasy Football Player Notes
2019 Rest of Season Rankings
|
25.
Cooper Kupp
WR - (vs . ARI)
Kupp isn't far removed from a torn ACL, but all reports out of camp are that he is even better than ever. Whether or not that is true is anyone's guess, but the fact of the matter is that he has huge upside if entirely healthy. He was the WR #2 prior to his injury.

44.
Robert Woods
WR - (vs . ARI)
Woods ends a six-man third-tier of fantasy receivers before a huge drop-off to the fourth tier. It might not feel as sexy as some other picks in the fourth or fifth round, but there is something to be said for his safety week to week and year-long in this Rams' machine of an offense.

121.
Jared Goff
QB - (vs . ARI)
Goff threw for an incredible 78 yards against the 49ers after throwing for nearly 1,000 yards combined over his previous two games. It doesn't take a football analyst to realize that he's simply not playing anywhere close to his 2018 level, and more injuries on the Rams' offensive line is a bad sign going forward. Goff has fallen out of the QB1 conversation, and should now be considered just a bye-week filler until further notice.

144.
Los Angeles Rams
DST - (vs . ARI)

145.
Tyler Higbee
TE - (vs . ARI)
Higbee has back to back 100-yard games but he also has back to back easy matchups. This week, the Rams will go to Dallas, where the matchup is much more difficult. Higbee will be outside the top 12 in rankings at his position, but not by far.

|
148.
Malcolm Brown
RB - (vs . ARI)
Coach Sean McVay has made it clear that both Henderson and Brown will be plenty involved this season which makes sense considering they used a tender to ensure Brown remained on their roster. He may not quite be the second option, but absolutely has some upside in this high-powered offense.

194.
Darrell Henderson
RB - (vs . ARI)
Not only does it appear like a timeshare behind Todd Gurley, but the offense isn't good enough to warrant the backfield as a must-own situation like it was the first two years in Sean McVay's offense. Henderson's best-case scenario is likely 8-12 touches per game with an injury to Gurley, and even then, he wouldn't get the goal-line work.

|
206.
Gerald Everett
TE - (vs . ARI)
Many will be turning to Chris Herndon if they need a tight end this week, but the Cowboys are a more daunting defense against them than what Everett gets this week, plus the difference in QBs is substantial.
|
|
212.
Josh Reynolds
WR - (vs . ARI)
Reynolds may be filling in for Brandin Cooks while he is out, and that may end up being the remainder of the season, but we are talking about the number four option at best in Jared Goff's offense. Add in a bad rest of season schedule and we should be leaving Reynolds on waivers.
