Fantasy Football Player Notes

Bowers is having an incredible season. As the only part of this offense that looks remotely functional, Bowers has single-handedly carried this offense. This week, we have a huge change, as first-overall-pickFernando Mendoza gets his first start. Even though Kirk Cousins is not what he used to be, he was playing very solid football this year. As a result, throwing a rookie in against the vaunted Seattle defense may lead to a tough day for the superstar TE. One thing is certain; he will see volume. However, against the defense allowing the second-fewest passing yards and only 18 points per game to opposing offenses, this won't be pretty. I hope the Mendozer proves me wrong, but he significantly limits Bowers' ceiling in this matchup. Bowers remains my TE3 behind Kittle and Likely this week; however, this week really could go either way.
