Should i start victor cruz week 6

Quarterback Daniel Jones finds wide receiver Kenny Golladay over the middle for a yard gain and first down. Fullback Elijhaa Penny picks up big first down in the fourth quarter of the Week 9 contest against the Raiders. Running back Devontae Booker finds open space for a yard gain in the first half against the Raiders. Defensive back Logan Ryan forces a fumble from Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce that cornerback James Bradberry recovers for a big third quarter takeaway.

Wide receiver Kadarius Toney takes a trick-play toss and throws a yard completion to fellow wide receiver Sterling Shepard. Wide receiver John Ross fights through defensive pass interference to catch a yard pass from quarterback Daniel Jones. Tight end Kyle Rudolph scores his first touchdown with the Giants on a pass from quarterback Daniel Jones. Defensive back Julian Love intercepts a pass from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the end zone. Lockett SEA. Allen LAC.

Moore CAR. Waddle MIA. Jeudy DEN. Smith PHI. Renfrow LV. Sutton DEN. Sanders BUF. Aiyuk SF. Jones Jr. Kirk ARI. Bateman BAL. Jefferson LAR. Beasley BUF.

Landry CLE. Davis NYJ. Meyers NE. Gallup DAL. Callaway NO. Patrick DEN. Gage ATL. Four finished as WR3s. Three finished as WR4s. And just one failed to meet any of those standards of fantasy utility. I expect Toney to sustain his fantasy value even as his Giants teammates return to health.

The Seahawks never fully explained the extent of Chris Carson's neck injury, and they barely had time to on a short week before playing the Rams last Thursday night.

Alex Collins provided a decent line of 17 touches and 72 yards but failed to score. And that may be the best you see from him this season if the team's 10 off days allow Carson time to fully recover and face the Steelers next Sunday night. But you don't have to read too much between head coach Pete Carroll's lines to believe that Carson is a question mark for Week 6 and may generally be dealing with a serious injury. Collins looks like an old-school every-down handcuff, and with the uncertainty of his starter, Collins may be the most valuable handcuff in football even with an unappealing Week 6 matchup with the Steelers and their seventh ranked run defense DVOA and without quarterback Russell Wilson for at least a few weeks.

Compared to Collins, Williams has the cleaner path to short-term playing time. But I don't trust Williams to dominate his backfield in touches the way that Collins did on Thursday.

Williams managed that on Sunday night, seeing five carries and five targets compared to just two and two for teammate Jerick McKinnon. Even with Edwards-Helaire healthy in September, Williams paced his backfield with 1.

And I will probably chase those touchdowns on what will still likely be the league's No. But consider your fantasy team's short- and long-term needs before you exhaust your FAB for Williams. I don't expect him to rival the workloads of recent handcuff starters such as Alexander Mattison or Damien Williams.

I was surprised to see Mitchell make it back from his shoulder injury for Week 5 when the 49ers have their bye in Week 6 and could have extended his rehab another two weeks because of it.

But I wasn't surprised to see Mitchell reassert his role as the team's lead back as soon as he played. Mitchell saw a His overall That is unlikely to continue—either Lance will develop as a processor and a passer, or head coach Kyle Shanahan will return Jimmy Garoppolo to the lineup when he is recovered from his calf injury, very likely in Week 7 after the bye.

Pick Mitchell up if you play in the close to a third of leagues where he was dropped. Just make sure you have a bench spot for him this week with the 49ers on bye. Lance won't play in Week 6 with the 49ers on bye.

And he seems unlikely to play in Week 7, at which point incumbent quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will have had three weeks to recover from a non-serious calf injury.

But Lance provided the reason to stick with his fantasy stash in what may prove to be a spot start in Week 5. He may have underwhelmed as a passer with an interception and 8.

But he did what fantasy players prefer their quarterbacks to do: ran the ball. His 16 carries for 89 yards increased his carry share to The run-heaviest quarterbacks excel in fantasy no matter their passing success.

Last year, Lamar Jackson paced his position with a If Sanders hadn't settled the debate of his or Cole Beasley's fantasy preference with two touchdowns in Week 3, he certainly did with another two touchdowns in Week 5. There was little doubt that Sanders would have the scoring edge between those two.

Still, Sanders has exceeded my expectations in both his four actual touchdowns and his 2. That latter total is tied for eighth-most among all wide receivers. Sanders looks like the clear second option in an appealing fantasy offense.

And the tight end Knox may be the third option. His yards and a touchdown from Sunday night were somewhat fortunate. He contributed half of that production on a yard touchdown catch when quarterback Josh Allen rolled his way to a coverage breakdown. But Knox also has a Now he's trying to work his way back in order to be ready for the start of the NFL season. Cruz voiced similar sentiments at the time, saying he expected to be cleared for light practicing by training camp, per Schwartz.

I want to come out here, come end of July, from a personal standpoint, and be kind of ready to go, be healthy, and from a physical standpoint, my wind, just have everything ready to go come July 29, July Then let the training staff kind of pull me back and let me know what they want from that point [on], but I want to come in ready to go, energized, fully healthy, running, and be good to go.
