Outlook Devaughn Vele
Devaughn Vele at Detroit — Expanded Slot Role in High-Scoring Opener
Devaughn Vele enters the season opener operating as the Saints' primary slot receiver. With wideout Jordyn Tyson sidelined by a hamstring injury, Vele steps into immediate opportunities alongside Chris Olave inside Ford Field's fast-track dome.
Our weekly projection tabs Vele for around 4 targets, 2.5 receptions, and 30 yards (7.2 fantasy points). Facing a high-scoring game environment with New Orleans entering as seven-point underdogs, passing volume should be elevated. Still, rostered in just 19% of leagues with a microscopic start rate, he profiles best as an intriguing deep-league streamer rather than a standard-format starter.

Outlook Greg Dulcich
Greg Dulcich at Las Vegas — Modest Target Floor in Low-Scoring Opener
Dulcich enters Week 1 completely healthy as Miami's starting tight end with Malik Willis under center. With backup tight end Cole Turner placed on injured reserve and Will Kacmarek managing a calf issue, Dulcich should handle the bulk of routes and snaps at the position.
Despite his clear starting status, fantasy managers remain cautious, with Dulcich rostered in roughly 11% of leagues and started in only 2%. In a road matchup featuring a modest 40.5 over/under, our projections forecast 2.3 receptions for 28 yards (6.1 fantasy points). He is best treated as a touchdown-dependent bench option in standard leagues, though he offers desperate deep-league managers fringe streaming viability.
