Braelon Allen vs. Packers — High-Value Handcuff Carving Out Rotational Work
Allen operates as the clear RB2 behind Breece Hall in New York's backfield, with depth runner Kene Nwangwu sidelined. In the season opener, Allen handled 10 carries for 40 yards and had a touchdown run wiped out by a holding penalty, confirming he already possesses an active rotational role.
While that steady early-down share offers minor deep-league standalone appeal, he remains mostly a high-priority bench stash. Our weekly projection expects around 35 rushing yards on roughly nine carries, totaling 4.9 fantasy points against Green Bay. Keep him benched for now, but ensure he is rostered across all competitive formats.

Devaughn Vele at Baltimore — Slot Volume Offers Viable Flex Appeal
Devaughn Vele surged onto fantasy radars after a productive season opener where he caught seven of nine targets for 69 yards and a touchdown. Operating as New Orleans' starting slot receiver, Vele is positioned for steady involvement, especially with top target Chris Olave currently questionable due to a hamstring injury.
As eight-point road underdogs in Baltimore, the Saints face a likely pass-heavy game script that benefits Vele's short-area routes. Our weekly projection lands at 10.2 fantasy points on four catches for 46 yards. Following a massive waiver spike to 77% rostered, he enters Week 2 as a matchup-dependent flex play.
