Kyle Rudolph‘s best days are numbered. He had a good week last week, but the six catches were a season high. You just can’t count on consistent production from a guy who has had 17 total targets on the year. The opportunity is there this week with Thielen out, but there’s too much risk to start him.
Dan Bailey, K, Minnesota Vikings
I forsee the Vikings scoring touchdowns this game, not field goals. Bailey’s decline started last season and missed another field goal last week against the Lions. He may not get many opportunities this week and even if he does, there’s no guarantee he’ll capitalize. Stream someone like Ka’imi Fairbairn who has heated up of late and stay away from Dan Bailey.
Redskins Defense/Special Teams
All signs point towards this being an ugly one for the ‘Skins. Stay away from them this week and pick up a defense like Seattle who are playing a struggling Falcons team who could be without Matt Ryan.
Good luck this week, fantasy footballers!
