Fantasy Football Player Notes

As of now, Hopkins is the consensus #1 receiver off the board. You certainly can't argue with his talent nor his recent production but there is reason to be concerned about his shoulder, however, as he started the preseason the PUP. Perhaps more concerning is the fact that both Will Fuller and Keke Coutee will both be healthy so his league-high target share may take a hit. He is still elite, but shouldn't exactly be a slam dunk at pick 6.

Kirk is likely to start every game in Kingsbury's new quick-paced offense that may afford the Cardinals 75 snaps per game. Assuming Murray is even a moderately competent passer, that could make Kirk a WR3 or even WR2 if everything clicks.

Fitzgerald has fallen off a bit since his incredibly hot start, but he's yet to have a game with fewer than five receptions. He's not the Fitzgerald of old, that much is clear, but especially in half or full-PPR leagues, he's an every-week starter without question, especially with some easier matchups on tap.

Isabella was exceptional in college and is so fast that we may seem him break a few long plays for touchdowns this season. Assuming he can win that third receiver job, he may have flex appeal in your fantasy league before long.

The rookie now has 26 targets on the season and is coming into an excellent home matchup versus a banged-up Falcons secondary that has been getting shredded. He makes for a solid flex play if you are desperate for a decent streamer in Week 6.
