Fantasy Football Week 1: Sit Them All?
13 Sep
Summary
- Jacory Croskey-Merritt faces tough Eagles defensive line.
- Makai Lemon has target competition and limited preseason impact.
- Jordan Addison's new QB and target share concerns persist.
Heading into Week 1 of the fantasy football season, decisions loom for Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Jordan Addison, and Makai Lemon. Croskey-Merritt, the Commanders' running back, faces a formidable challenge against an Eagles defense featuring potent interior linemen. Concerns also surround Washington's offensive line and the backfield's touch distribution, leading to a 'sit' recommendation.
Eagles wide receiver Makai Lemon, a high draft pick, navigates a crowded target landscape that includes DeVonta Smith and others. His limited preseason performance and missed offseason time also contribute to a cautious approach, suggesting he should be benched until demonstrating tangible impact.
Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison faces a favorable matchup but also new quarterback Kyler Murray and competition from Justin Jefferson. While Murray is seen as an upgrade, the chemistry with Addison remains uncertain, prompting a 'sit' verdict until the team's pass-catching dynamics become clearer.
