We’re firing up Tee Higgins with confidence, rolling with Cade Otton and Dalton Kincaid off the bye, and highlighting under-the-radar plays like Wan’Dale Robinson, Joe Flacco, Marcus Mariota, and Colston Loveland. Plus, we dig into top flex options — including Khalil Shakir, Jauan Jennings, and “Woody” — before closing with players to avoid: Xavier Legette, Hunter Henry, the entire Titans offense, and more. Need a desperation flex? We’ve got your dart throws too — Marvin Mims, Tez Johnson, and Tyler Allgeier all make the cut.
