Is Mark Andrews again after snagging 4 of his 5 targets for 55 yards in a high-scoring victory in opposition to the Bengals? Or do the Ravens deploy too many tight ends to depend on him once more? It's unsure. What about Kyle Pitts? He had a fairly strong sport (7-88-0), however we in all probability must see extra. Fantasy has seen a plethora of inconsistent performances by 5 weeks and the important thing is figuring out the gamers who present probably the most reliability. Here's a glimpse at some gamers whose worth is on the rise heading into Week 6 and a few who're falling wanting expectations.
STOCK UP
D’Andre Swift, RB, Bears
After a tough begin within the first three video games the place he ranked RB41 in fantasy and averaged 1.8 YPC, Swift has turned issues round in his final two outings. In the previous two weeks, he is fantasy RB2 (MNF pending) and is averaging 23 touches per sport. The information of Roschon Johnson receiving an elevated alternative forward of Week 4 appears to have motivated Swift and he has been on hearth. Although Johnson has pilfered a few of Swift's touchdowns (three within the final two video games), he has solely gathered 51 speeding yards on 17 carries within the final two weeks. Swift's utilization and manufacturing in Weeks 4 and 5 ought to instill confidence in fantasy managers transferring ahead.
Jalen Tolbert, WR, Cowboys
Coming off a game-winning landing catch, Tolbert is driving excessive. He caught 7-of-10 targets for 87 yards and a landing, slotting him in as WR10 in fantasy for Week 5. In three of Tolbert’s final 4 video games, he has both scored a landing or reeled in at the very least six receptions for 80 yards. In Week 5, he performed a season-high 89% of the offensive snaps and appears to be seizing the WR2 function from Brandin Cooks, who is on IR. Tolbert wants to take care of this degree of play as the Cowboys require constant playmakers except for CeeDee Lamb. Even previous to his current sport, Tolbert was on the sector for 74.5% of the snaps, indicating that the Cowboys think about him. Based on matchups, Tolbert ought to be seen as a reliable flex choice transferring ahead.
Tucker Kraft, TE, Packers
In a panorama the place tight ends are scarce in fantasy soccer, Kraft is likely to be the answer. The second-year tight finish has solidified his place as the Packers' prime TE over Luke Musgrave. Since Jordan Love returned from his knee harm, Kraft leads all tight ends in fantasy soccer, averaging 21.1 fantasy factors in his final two video games. He has hauled in 10-of-14 targets for 141 yards and three touchdowns throughout that span, establishing himself as the Packers' second choice within the passing sport behind Jayden Reed (for now). Additionally, Kraft has been on the sector for 82% of the Packers’ offensive snaps this season (in comparison with Musgrave's 39%). Acquiring Kraft through commerce may show troublesome as soon as his present supervisor delves into the numbers. Given the possibility, I'd swap Mark Andrews for Kraft.

STOCK DOWN
Breece Hall, RB, Jets
Last week, I gave Hall some leeway after a dismal efficiency the place he rushed for a career-low 4 yards on 10 carries. While his Week 5 exhibiting was not as poor, it wasn't significantly better. Following a sport in opposition to the Vikings wherein he recorded simply 12 touches for 37 yards, Hall's manufacturing does not justify his first-round fantasy draft choice. There is potential for enchancment in Hall's scenario, however the Jets' offense lacks the consistency wanted to belief any participant completely. Don't even take into consideration benching Hall (but), however rating as RB41 in fantasy over the previous two weeks is disappointing. Braelon Allen has a outlined function within the offense, however hasn't carried out properly sufficient for Hall managers to panic. It's tough, however keep on with him as a result of he is too gifted to remain underperforming for lengthy.
De’Von Achane, RB, Dolphins
Achane was a mid-round choose in most fantasy drafts and his worth has declined over the previous few weeks. He began robust, establishing himself as RB3 after the primary three weeks of the season. However, his drop in manufacturing (equally to all Dolphins' talent gamers) is instantly linked to Tua Tagovailoa's absence. In two full video games with out Tua, Achane has rushed 21 occasions for 45 yards. In Week 5, he was off to a promising begin with 18 yards on three carries, however he exited the sport with a concussion, paving the best way for Jaylen Wright and Raheem Mostert to take over. Both replacements discovered success, combining for 166 yards on 32 carries. This is vital as a result of when Achane returns, his workload and ceiling could also be restricted if the Dolphins revert to a working again by committee strategy. First and foremost, let's prioritize Achane's restoration.
Davante Adams, WR, Raiders
This evaluation of Adams has much less to do along with his abilities or skills and extra about his present inactivity. Looking on the full season perspective, you possibly can nonetheless trust in him as he has already delivered a standout efficiency this season with 9-of-12 targets for 110 yards and a landing. However, there are slight issues as he is at present coping with a hamstring harm whereas being shopped in potential trades. The uncertainty round his return date and potential touchdown spot leaves him idle in your fantasy roster for now. Additionally, as soon as he switches groups, he would require time to acclimate. Nonetheless, any workforce he strikes to is probably an improve within the quarterback place for him.
