It’s pouring rain in Washington and the field conditions could be rough once the tarp comes off, with rain expected to continue throughout the day. 🌦️🌦️

@DMendy02 Where is MHJ going to?

[Fantasy Sports Start Or Sit’Em Questions @FSSOSEQ]

WEEK 5 WEATHER WATCH:

CLE vs NYJ: 95% chance of rain; 12 mph winds with 22-24 MPH gusts

IND vs PIT: 90% chance of rain; 10 MPH winds and 18-21 MPH gusts

NYG vs WAS: 80% chance of rain; 10-12 MPH winds, with 22-26 MPH gusts (winds and gust speed decrease as the game goes on)

HOU vs TEN: 40% chance of rain; 10 MPH winds, with 17-18 MPH gusts

CIN vs MIA: 25% chance of rain

DEN vs LAC: 5% chance of rain in the 1st Half; 10% in the 2nd half; 11-12 MPH winds and 17 MPH gusts

*CLE vs NYJ would be the game to watch weather-wise with constant rain all game*

*IND vs PIT & NYG vs WAS would be the other 2 likely weather-impacted games, but CLE vs NYJ takes the cake with the constant rain*

*Once again, this is weather, and weather is completely unpredictable*

With Michael Pittman out for multiple weeks & Roman Wilson already swooped up off waivers, a sneaky stash here is Germie Bernard

When Michael Pittman missed week 2, Bernard & Wilson had the same snap count (79%), ran the same amount of routes (55) & Bernard had 8 targets to Wilson’s 6

The Steelers also have the 3rd highest pass rate in the NFL at 66%, there’s a chance 3 WRs could be fantasy relevant here

Available in 95% of Sleeper leagues

@otl_ff Sutton will make a comeback now that Payton has taken over most of play calling

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

@GarthABowen Very true! All of those guys are temporary, out of all of them Shipley is the most likely candidate but could only be a week or two.

I also like Roman Wilson (27th in fantasy) and secretly I would stash MH Jr if he gets traded to the Colts.

Will Shipley is a priority add.

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

Love the experts saying Jaylen Wright was the better pick up……

[Underdog NFL @UnderdogNFL]

Jaylen Wright listed at RB1, Ollie Gordon at RB2 on Dolphins depth chart.

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

@blitzlink_ Just a bad take

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

Consider picking up these guys to help you in week 2:

Rashod Bateman - He is WR1 in Baltimore against NO this weekend with Zay & Lane out, Chris Moore is also an option.

Keenan Allen - 6 for 6, 32 yards, look for more target share on shallow routes that DJ likes to hit.

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

Seems clean to me

[Alex Wilson @AlexWilsonESM]

DIRTY DIRTY DALLAS! Huge run by Dart, obviously hit out of bounds, love the boys coming to protect Dart

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

Terry McLaurin - 2 targets, 0 catches, 0 yards

[FantasyWhitey @Whiteys_Locks]

Malachi Fields will score a touchdown tonight

[Bryce DeGroat @NFL_Convo]

It feels like Christmas Eve man

We really made it
