Denver vs Arizona Fantasy

Sit:

Demaryius Thomas

Thomas has shown he still has something left in the tank the past two weeks, scoring double digits fantasy points in both weeks. This week could be a bump in the road though, the big body receiver will most likely draw Patrick Peterson most of the night. Meanwhile, Emmanuel Sanders has been the clear go-to guy for Case Keenum. Thomas could bounce back after this week but expect a let down Thursday night. Projections- Three catches, 40 yards.

Larry Fitzgerald

As mentioned previously, Fitzgerald hasn’t been the focal point in the offense like usual. Fitzgerald has only topped 40 yards once this season and has yet to catch a touchdown. To add to the struggles rookie Josh Rosen is throwing for only an average of 196 yards per game. Fitzgerald has been dropped in a lot of leagues and for good reasons. Projection- Five catches, 35 yards.

Ricky Seals-Jones

RSJ has had six targets the past two games, which shows a rapport with Rosen. If you look clearly though you’d see his five catches, 69  yard performance was inflated because of one 40 yard gain. The Broncos have been known to give up chunk plays to the tight end position, but have been much better in recent weeks. RSJ won’t crack the top ten for tight ends this week in fantasy. Projections- Two catches, 30 yards.
