Fantasy Football Player Notes

If you went into the playoffs relying on Crowder, it's not the greatest feeling to see him wind-up with just three catches for 30 yards against the Dolphins, especially when Bell was out and Ryan Griffin left the game early. If you made it through with that, consider yourself lucky. You're not going to want to take that risk again this week, as the Ravens might just be the worst matchup for pass-catchers right now. Looking over the last five games against the Ravens, their opponent's WR1/WR2/WR3 and TE1 have not combined for more than 34.7 PPR points. I cannot explain how ridiculous that is. The slot receivers they've played in that time were Tyler Boyd (6/62/0), Keke Coutee (3/25/0), Cooper Kupp (6/35/0), Kendrick Bourne (3/42/0), and Cole Beasley (4/29/1). So, the ceiling in those games was 12.9 PPR points, which is just enough to get into the WR3 conversation. Coming off the last two games that have netted just five catches for 38 yards, his floor doesn't justify him being started as anything more than a mid-to-low-end WR4.
