Makai Lemon Opens Season as High-Upside Slot Stash

Makai Lemon is fully healthy entering Week 1 after moving past a training camp hamstring tweak and playing in the preseason finale. While listed as Philadelphia's primary slot receiver alongside DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks, missed practice time in August may limit his early snap volume.

Rostered in 87% of leagues but started in just 5%, fantasy managers are prudently taking a wait-and-see stance. Our weekly projection expects a modest showing of roughly 3 targets, 2 receptions, and 29 yards (6.1 fantasy points), making him a clear bench stash for now.

Rashee Rice at Denver — Primed for High Volume in Divisional Opener

Rashee Rice enters the season healthy and established as Kansas City's go-to slot option alongside Xavier Worthy and Travis Kelce. While Patrick Mahomes is questionable with a knee issue, Rice remains the engine of the short passing attack, giving him a dependable target floor regardless of who is under center.

Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats, evidenced by his near-universal 98% start rate. Our weekly projection anticipates Rice producing around 15 fantasy points on eight targets, roughly five receptions, and 62 yards with solid scoring chances.
