✍️ 17 players to help you WIN your draft

WE ARE BACK.

It's The Touchdown Press Newsletter. Your #1 source for all things fantasy football, DFS, and sports betting, along with 10,000+ fellow degenerates.

Another manic Monday. Hopefully your drafts were successful this weekend and you can wear that smugness ALL day.

Today in 5 minutes or less, you’ll learn:

Was averaging 22.6 fantasy PPG before he got injured, which would have led the NFL. Opportunity share should stay level.

Chart from @MBFantasylife:

Ground game is essential for fantasy QBs, and Hurts was 1st in carries per game (11), RZ carries (43), and rush TDs (13).

Chubb was RB6 in PPG in ‘22, and hasn’t been outside the top 10 since ‘18. He now has the Browns backfield to himself.

He was brought to New York to help move the ball more efficiently. With Daniel Jones’s improvement and Waller’s athleticism, it’s a match that will light.

Coming off a career-high in rush yards (1,121) and a 9th-place target share (13.4%). He’s the receiving RB for Jordan Love.

He’s one of just a small handful of guys to see 140+ targets 3 years running. Despite this, he didn’t score in ‘22, so he’s due.

New OC means higher pace of play and more passing volume. Awesome weapons in Baltimore means more efficiency.

Fantasy Life projects him for the 2nd-most rush yards and the 4th-most fantasy points. I think he can best it.

Cook has run the most of the starter snaps in the preseason, and he was explosive in limited work in ‘22, ranking 1st in breakaway run rate (12.1%), and 3rd in yards per touch (6.3).

PrizePicks is a daily fantasy game with season-long player projections.

2022’s WR15 is supremely athletic, as he ranked 13th in route win rate and 3rd in target separation. He’s a better value than Deebo Samuel at this point in the summer.

6 Texan TEs combined for 131 targets last year. Schultz joins the team as the clear no. 1, and could see most of those chances.

The talented draft pick is a balanced player who can run and catch passes. Departed Lions RBs left behind 421 touches.

His “poor” ‘22 can be attributed to a hand fracture, and the man is looking happy and ready to go in New York.

I like Gibson as a sleeper in PPR leagues. He was 12th in WOPR and 16th in RACR, and J.D. McKissic left 40 targets.

(advanced stats from @MBFantasylife)

He’s been making some great plays in the preseason, and Jerry Jeudy just got carted off the practice field with a hamstring injury.

Juju Smith-Schuster and Mecole Hardman left 135 targets behind, which Moore will try to earn from the slot position.

According to coaches, he’s going to be involved in the passing game significantly for the first time since seeing 50 targets as a rookie. Scored 11 TDs last year.

Word is he’s developed a very nice connection with Derek Carr already. He was 6th in ADOT and 4th in TDs last year, making him a sneaky good pick.
