To the Tyreek Hill fantasy managers:

If the egregious allegations against him cause him to not be signed by a team, do this instead...

I still don't know how Tyreek Hill turned this into a touchdown 😲

George Pickens looks like he’s about to have a big game against the Bucs 🚀

The short week could benefit the Cowboys WRs, especially with Antoine Winfield Jr. and Benjamin Morrison, the Buccaneers starting corners, potentially missing this game.

Tampa Bay plays single-high safety looks at a 66.2% rate, 3rd-most in the NFL.

Against single-high over the last 2 seasons, Pickens has been one of the best WRs in the league. Among all WRs and TEs, he ranks:

• 1st in end-zone targets (8)
• Tied for 2nd in TDs (4)
• 5th in yards per route run (3.46)
• 3rd in first downs per route run (0.205)
• 7th in receptions (36)
• 5th in yards (505)

This is the type of coverage Pickens has consistently been able to attack.

Dallas’ offense has also been great this season. They’re a top-3 offense in EPA (40.6), playing at the 8th-fastest pace in the NFL at 27.8 seconds per play, and they’re passing at a top-3 rate with an 8.6% pass rate over expectation.

There’s a lot to like here for Pickens. The potential absence of Tampa Bay’s starting corners, the coverage he’ll see 66% of the time, his production against that coverage, Dallas’ pace and passing volume, plus a 48-point O/U all set up well for him.

I’m on Pickens for the TD, fantasy points, yards and receptions. I want it all. I could even see him scoring 2 TDs 👀

Attached below is a graphic of George Pickens against single-high looks over the last 2 seasons.

33% target share (team high)
2.13 yards per route

but Dallas has seen two-high 71% of the time (most in NFL)

[Fantasy Football Swank @FantasySwank]

@dgfmedia I think Bears is the least likely of all mentioned here though would be interesting. I also think Chargers could be in play because he has familiarity with McDaniel. Pats and Seahawks could make sense but I think it is clear he is going to the Chiefs. Both sides want it.

THIS IS HAPPENING

[Arrowhead Corner @ArrowheadCorner]

“Tyreek Hill would like to go back to Kansas City.”

— @AdamSchefter on @GetUpESPN.

[SleeperDolphins @SleeperMiami]

People forget how truly elite Tyreek Hill was just three years ago.

2023 Cheetah:

— 119 catches
— 1,799 receiving yards
— 13 touchdowns
— Robbed of NFL Offensive Player of the Year

An absolute masterpiece of a season with the Dolphins.

[Drew Davenport @DrewDavenportFF]

I've been getting a lot of questions about the Tyreek Hill case and what has transpired in the civil trial.

Here's an #FFLegalUpdate on the situation.

1/🧵

[Fantasy Football Swank @FantasySwank]

The Panthers and 49ers are the 2 most injured teams, but have also been 2 teams somewhat exceeding expectations.

Then you have the number 3-9 most injured teams playing like the most injured teams for the most part.

[🍁 @ThomasWrrld]

The Panthers are by far the most injured team in the NFL so far

[Fantasy Football Swank @FantasySwank]

But did you see Aidan Hutchinson?

No, you didn't see him because he's there in less than 2.4 seconds

[frank @realfrankbrank]

crosby is second in total pressures and 65% of them occur in less than 2.5 seconds

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

The Broncos are taking a more collaborative play-calling approach this week with HC Sean Payton having an increased role in the process and OC Davis Webb continuing with a significant game-planning and game-day role, per sources. Denver is looking to spark its offense ahead of Sunday’s game at Los Angeles vs. the Chargers.

Week 4 TE Targets Per Route Run vs. WOPR (a
@friscojosh metric) ⬇️

- Kyler loves TJ Hockenson (w/o Jefferson)
- Sadiq goose egg but Jets barely had ball
- Gadsden stock up w/ McConkey week-to-week
- Loveland best game of season
- Kincaid :(

[The List - Dolphins Podcast 🐬 @TheListFinsPod]

Kevin O'Connell said TJ Hockenson went off against Miami (13 catches, 119 yards) is because the Dolphins played so much split safety:

"I told Jeff after the game - I think another split safety coverage fell out of his pocket while we were shaking hands."
