Notes:
- Garrett Wilson at WR24 matches NBC's case: top 20 in only two of his last five, with the fifth-hardest remaining schedule (NBC Sports). Now he's in the concussion protocol too.
- Zay Flowers is the first guy I'd move up if the Brissett deal closes (The Big Lead).
- McMillan at WR8 is a split call: NBC says sell, FantasyPros says buy the targets. More in trade targets.
- Antonio Williams (Commanders) isn't on this board yet, but he led Washington's receivers in snaps and routes in his first game without Terry McLaurin (FantasyPros).
