Devaughn Vele vs. Falcons — Dependable PPR Flex Option in High-Volume Passing Attack
Operating as the primary slot receiver, Vele has commanded 22 targets over the first three contests while quarterback Tyler Shough paces the league in pass attempts. With lead running back Travis Etienne sidelined, New Orleans should remain pass-oriented in an indoor divisional clash against Atlanta.
Our projections peg Vele for roughly 4 catches and 47 receiving yards (10.8 PPR points), making him a viable flex option in deeper formats. While his touchdown upside is modest, his roster rate has surged past 84% thanks to consistent short-area volume and a favorable game environment.

Saquon Barkley vs. Rams — In Line for a Heavy Workload at Home
Fully past his Week 2 stinger, Barkley bounced back with 15 carries for 82 yards last week and clearly leads Philadelphia's backfield ahead of Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley. With key pass-catchers DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert ruled out, Philadelphia should lean heavily on their ground game against the Rams.
While zero touchdowns through three contests has tested fantasy managers' patience, positive regression is looming. Our weekly projection slots Barkley for roughly 17 carries and 79 rushing yards, yielding 14.3 fantasy points. With over 96% of leagues starting him, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a must-start RB1.
