The Young TEs Dominated in Week 6, Plus Blockbuster WR Trade Options on the Horizon

Shawn Siegele
October 18, 2021

Shawn Siegele profiles the big games from Noah Fant and Mike Gesicki, raves about the young studs at running back, and looks at opportunities to put together invincible squads for the fantasy playoffs.

Week 6 gave us more insight into the players and coaches who will determine titles in 2021. Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp continued their blitzkrieg assault on the league. Sam Darnold completed a multi-week collapse and now has the Carolina coaches contemplating an offensive reboot. Mac Jones is keeping the Patriots alive against superior opponents, and the Cowboys have CeeDee Lamb to bail them out of trouble when the running game stalls.

It also offers a reminder not to pack it in early. I had an injury-riddled, previously winless team score 195 points this week with Saquon Barkley out. With eight weeks still to play before the fantasy quarterfinals, there’s plenty of time to get healthy and find the right lineups to pile up points.
