Dalton Kincaid

PositiveValue0:27

DJ Moore says Kincaid is a safe tight end target heading into Week 3 after posting eight targets and seven receptions with a touchdown last week. Moore emphasizes that Josh Allen really trusts Kincaid and the Bills lack a true WR1 with DJ Moore injury-prone, making Kincaid a reliable target for the best quarterback in the game. While acknowledging last week was elevated and he may not score a touchdown every week, Moore believes Kincaid will be steady throughout the season.

Denzel Boston

PositiveBreakout4:05

DJ Moore identifies Denzel Boston as an emerging WR who has separated himself from other Browns receiver options like Concepcion. Boston posted seven targets and 20.5 fantasy points last week and has shown consistency in preseason and early season play. Moore notes he and Walter discussed Boston as a potential breakout candidate before the season, and two weeks in, Boston has clearly established himself as the alpha dog in the Browns receiving corps, making him worth acquiring despite being a late-round stash.

Matthew Golden

PositiveBreakout6:20

DJ Moore recommends acquiring Matthew Golden as the Packers' WR1 despite a modest 9.8 points and four receptions on six targets last week. Moore cites viral video evidence of Golden's smooth route running, separation creation, and slick play up the middle, suggesting his production will improve. Moore advises getting him at a low price as a WR1 on the Packers despite the team's overall weak performance last week.

Tre Tucker

PositiveSleeper2:30

DJ Moore highlights Trey Tucker as a breakout wide receiver who was going undrafted (WR65) but is now the WR1 on the Raiders. Tucker posted seven targets and 22.9 fantasy points last week with 119 receiving yards and a touchdown, outperforming top-tier receivers like T. Higgins, Christian Watson, Rashee Rice, and George Pickens. Moore credits Tucker with carving out a main target role for Kirk Cousins and notes his consistency in preseason and regular season production, questioning why he wasn't drafted higher.

0:007 players need to get on your roster right now.
0:03Fantasy Football Week 3 is here. I'm going to get it short and concise here in this video.
0:07I'm going to give you guys the information. Let's get right into it.
0:11Hit the thumbs up. It really helps support the channel.
0:14And make sure you guys, if you do have a start and sit question, drop it below.
0:18I'll try to get to as many as I can.
0:21If you want direct access, join the Patreon group.
0:23All right? Let's dive into this. All right? It helps support the channel.
0:27Just hit that thumbs up. First player needs to get on your roster heading into Week 3.
0:31Now, tight ends are always a bit of a crapshoot, but I got a safe one here for you.
0:36You want to trade for, you want to get Dalton Kincaid.
0:39Eight targets, seven receptions last week, and a touchdown.
0:42Now, here's the thing. Obviously, with DJ Moore being out, there's going to be an inflation in numbers, but we got to
0:47make sure that we want to get a secure tight end.
0:50And listen, Dalton Kincaid is a guy that I believe Josh Allen really trusts.
0:54Not to mention, Josh Allen is on fire and so are the Buffalo Bills.
0:58So they don't have a true wide receiver one.
1:00Again, DJ Moore gets banged up a lot. I don't trust him being fully healthy all the time.
1:05Dalton Kincaid really proved with his eight targets, seven receptions last week.
1:08That this guy is going to be a reliable target for the best quarterback in the game.
1:13That is Josh Allen. And man, do those Buffalo Bills look really, really good this year?
1:17Okay? So look to target him. I know it was a bit of a higher week last week.
1:22Maybe he doesn't get a touchdown next week, right?
1:24But he's a guy that I think is going to be steady throughout the season.
1:28All right? Number two here, Tyler Schuff. I love Tyler Schuff.
1:31Here's the thing, right? I was the only one telling you to stash Tyler Schuff.
1:35In fact, he's on my teams. He's my backup.
1:38And I actually benched him for Jalen Hurts. How was I going to sit Jalen Hurts for Tyler Schuff?
1:43And Tyler Schuff had a bit of a better week.
1:45Past two weeks, man, over 23 fantasy points. All right?
1:48Top eight running back two weeks in a row.
1:5022.4 weeks this last week. 23 points the week before.
1:53Two weeks. And this is what I was seeing with this guy.
1:56The guy was maintaining a steady, and I mean steady production at the end of last season.
2:01And he wasn't even the main alpha dog. I mean, he started becoming the alpha dog late last season.
2:06But I saw that, you know, there was some upside.
2:08He started as the alpha dog this year. And he's really run away with that job to be a top producer and
2:14a great player in fantasy for that matter and reality.
2:17So Tyler Schuff. Some people call him Shuck. I don't know where you get that from.
2:21There's no U. There's no C. There's no K.
2:24Oh, there's a U, but it's part of Schuff.
2:26O-U-G-H. Regardless, Tyler Schuff. Make sure you get him.
2:28Now he's going to be more expensive. That's just the bottom line, right?
2:32Maybe wait on a down week or something like that.
2:35But some of these guys are already inflated. I told you to get them.
2:38Maybe it's too late for you. Okay? But I would get, you need a secure quarterback.
2:43Make sure you trade for this guy, right? Especially in Dynasty.
2:46Number three here. Now he's going to be inflated, but I told you to stash him on all your rosters.
2:51This guy was wide receiver 65, meaning he was literally going undrafted.
2:54I'm like, dude, he's a wide receiver one on the Raiders.
2:57Trey Tucker, seven targets this past week. 22.9 fantasy points.
3:00Now some people say, well, Brock Bowers isn't there.
3:02Very well. But he has really carved out his role to be a main target for Kirk Cousins on the Raiders offense.
3:08And we see it every single week. This guy produces.
3:11He's consistent. We saw it in preseason. I don't know why people didn't just draft this guy.
3:15Okay? This guy outperformed all of your top performers.
3:18I was seeing some stat here. I don't know the exact stat, but he outperformed everybody.
3:22Like when it comes to receiving yards on the year, receptions, 119 receiving yards this past week and a touchdown.
3:27Beating guys. Like we're talking big name guys. Beats T Higgins this past week.
3:31Beats Christian Watson. Beats Rashi Rice. Rashi Rice was a guy being drafted like the third, fourth round.
3:36George Pickens, two bust weeks. I told you, do not draft this guy.
3:39He's a wide receiver too. George Pickens finished 34th amongst wide receivers this week.
3:4310 fantasy points for George Pickens. Last week, 5.8.
3:45He had 15 fantasy points. Everyone is drafting him in the third round.
3:49I told you, CeeDee Lamb's the alpha dog. Sure enough, CeeDee Lamb, third in fantasy points this week.
3:54Right? That's why 16 rounds gives you the edge.
3:56Right? But if you guys didn't get 16 rounds, too bad, so sad.
3:59You guys are behind. Regardless, Trey Tucker, man. I'm telling you, man.
4:03Like now it's a little late, but if you can get him on your roster, solid.
4:07Solid wide receiver. Right? Number four, maybe a little too late on this guy.
4:11Also 16 rounder is Denzel Boston. All right? Seven targets this past week.
4:1420.5 fantasy points. We talked about like stashing a couple of these guys, him and Concepcion.
4:18Someone's going to emerge at the end of the season, the end of like training camp.
4:23And before the season started, I saw Denzel Boston.
4:25Walter and I were talking about Denzel Boston. Looks like he's going to emerge out of the group here.
4:30And sure enough, he has really emerged. We saw it kind of in preseason and stuff like that.
4:35But I would look to get Denzel Boston because now he has separated himself.
4:39Someone in my Patreon group said, should I drop?
4:41Who should I drop? He's got Concepcion and Boston.
4:43At this point, you got to have conviction in somebody, right?
4:46So I would say Concepcion. Now that being said, Concepcion could have a good week here and there.
4:51Anything can happen. But you're going to get the alpha dog.
4:54And I think at this point, two weeks in, we can see that it's definitely Denzel Boston is the alpha dog.
5:00I think the Browns got a really good deal on him in the draft, right?
5:04So it's about seeing what's happening, trading for players.
5:06But remember, sometimes they're one week wonders. We had a bunch of guys last week that had a good week, Coker, stuff like that.
5:12That just did not duplicate. Coker finished 18th this week, too, heading into week three.
5:16Who knows? But he is pretty consistent. Nine targets, which I like, right?
5:20We see other people fall off. Christian Watson, 14 fantasy points.
5:23Big fall off from the first week. He didn't have that big 81-yard reception, right?
5:27We see things like that. You got to trend forward and see, okay, well, he had a good week last week.
5:32Is he consistent? And make a decision on that.
5:35I think Denzel is going to be consistent, okay?
5:37Number five here. This guy I was not a fan of.
5:40Again, I could take ownership. I don't like him.
5:43But regardless, he's getting targets. Five receptions, six targets is Dontavian Wicks because the Eagles need somebody to step up.
5:48Goddard got hurt. Lemon did not step up. I thought Lemon, you know, you drafted a guy in the first round.
5:53You think he performed. He's not, right? You know, AJ Brown's gone.
5:57And again, I was wrong on Devontae Smith. He has really emerged as the one.
6:01Hurts is just utilizing him a lot. But Dontavian Wicks has been a safety blanket as well for Hurts.
6:06Clearly, he has a two right now. So that is somebody you may want to target.
6:10If you are looking for a receiver that has a good quarterback thrown to him, Dontavian Wicks, maybe look to target him on your roster, okay?
6:17Again, make sure you guys do hit the thumbs up.
6:20I got two more here for you. You want to get on your roster right now.
6:24Hit the thumbs up. Helps the channel. And again, if you guys want my picks.
6:28By the way, I nailed the picks on the counselor's edge.
6:31I mean, well over 50%. And also, we destroyed.
6:33I had the Rams to cover and to win yesterday.
6:36So if you guys aren't in the counselor's edge, I've linked it below.
6:39Join. You get my picks against the spread straight up.
6:42And you also get my locks of the week at the prop position, like over, under, higher, lower, okay?
6:47Make sure you guys join the counselor's edge. I've linked it below.
6:50All right. Number six here is Matthew Golden. Six targets, four receptions, 9.8 points the past week.
6:55I get it. But I saw a video going viral after this past week here where people are just highlighting how smooth
7:01his route running is and how he creates separation, how slick he is going up the middle.
7:05Amazing. He is the wide receiver one on this team.
7:08And I still think you should get him. I don't think the Packers had the greatest week last week, but I would still get Matthew Golden right now.
7:15Get him low. You're getting a wide receiver one on the Packers, right?
7:19And number seven, an opportunity just opened up for this tight end.
7:22And here's the thing, man. 9.8 fantasy points and a touchdown this past week.
7:26Now, Joyko got hurt and the other tight end got hurt.
7:29You know, the Chargers are getting banged up, but I would get Gadison on your team.
7:33And now some people are saying, well, Herbert sucks.
7:35And I watched a video another guy put on Insta, and I think he is a bit of a Chargers fan.
7:41He is a Chargers fan. And he posted how, you know, the offensive line was, you know, false starting a lot and
7:47how, you know, Quinton Johnson was dropping the ball.
7:49And he, you know, Justin Herbert was threading the needle multiple times.
7:52The team was just not stepping up. So I don't think it's all entirely Justin Herbert's fault.
7:57But regardless, I think Gadison could be a great target for him, especially with Ladd McConkie with the on and off injuries.
8:03Quinton Johnson dropping balls. You know, Njoyku now being out going on IR.
8:06Gadison's really going to step up. You know, I was really high on this guy in my drafts.
8:11I got him on all my rosters. Now it's time for him to emerge.
8:15So if you're looking for a tight end, Arando Gadison, make sure you guys draft or acquire him.
8:20I keep saying draft. I'm in draft mode. All right.
8:22So that's it for you guys, right? Get these guys on your team.
8:26If you have any questions, drop them below. Hit the thumbs up.
8:29Daily video is coming your way. All right. I'll talk to you guys soon and see you guys in the Patreon group
8:35and in the Counselor's Edge linked below. All right.
8:37Lion mentality. Enjoy your day. I'm out.
