3. Willie Snead:

With Marquise Brown reportedly being a game time decision, Lamar Jackson will need to have his entire receiving corps step up. Brown and Mark Andrews have been doing most of the work in terms of pass catching. The one other receiving target that Baltimore knows they can rely on is Willie Snead. In the past two games, Snead has been picking up some steam in this offense. He had four receptions for 51 yards against the Steelers. In the loss to the Cleveland Browns, Snead had 61 yards and a touchdown.

This is the game to play Willie Snead in your fantasy football lineup if you need a good third wide receiver or a flex. The situation dictates he will have an elevated role in the offense. Even if Brown plays in this game, his snap count will be probably be limited. The Ravens are still waiting to see Miles Boykin to start making plays. Seth Roberts only has seven receptions this year and Chris Moore hasn’t done anything good for the offense this season. Mark Andrews and Hayden Hurst can’t catch every pass. The Ravens need somebody to step up and Snead is the only player to logically expect anything more from.

Here you have a receiver trending upward in a spot where the offense needs him to deliver. Putting everything together you could see a big day from Snead. 100 yards from Snead wouldn’t be unthinkable. This has a chance to be Snead’s best game of the entire season. It’s a golden opportunity for the reliable veteran receiver.
