What week can Olsen actually play? I have him stashed in my IR Spot right now, but I have Ertz so I won't start him unless it's in the Flex.

The Tennessee Titans have plenty of offensive adjustments to make during the bye week, but the most significant one could be the return of rookie receiver Corey Davis. The Titans' fifth overall pick has been a key missing cog over the five weeks as he sat with a hamstring injury. All signs point to him coming back Week 9 vs. the Baltimore Ravens. Titans coach Mike Mularkey got perky while discussing his return, saying Davis will make "a big difference." "He did some really good things in his one game, with no prior game experience," Mularkey said speaking to Davis' six catches for 69 yards in his lone full NFL game. "We should be better if we can get him back." Related players: Rishard Matthews, Taywan Taylor, Eric Decker

Why will doctson be more fruitful than Pryor, I wonder? He had the opp last night.

They lined up Vernon Davis as a WR and ran a lot of 2 TE sets

We may be looking at reed Davis and Thompson being the 3 best pass catchers on her team for fantasy purposes

oh I'm fairly certain that's the likely outcome. Still if he's out there, a talent like doctson is worth betting on.

Yeah I've been saying it for a few weeks now, fantasy wise it's not happening for him this year. I don't see it.

Definitely worth a spot

I’m just seeing people all over him this AM. I’m trying to figure out if they actually saw anything

I’m also trying to figure out the underlying problem with Pryor. He was so good last year, as was Crowder. So two guys regressed that much? Or is there a bigger issue with the offense somewhere? This has me skeptical on doctson. Maybe it isn’t the WRs

I'm just really going off of what Gruden said, first round talent, and basically whats happening with Pryor.

Docston looks like a perfect stash and hope if you have the room.

I wonder if Pryor did something to piss off the staff.

Gruden also mentioned Doctson got open a few times, Cousins just didn't see him. I think that's important.

r is there a bigger issue with the offense somewhere?


the OL

Pryor simply could have been a flash in the pan that guys figured out how to defend and since he's still not an experienced WR he hasn't figured out how to battle through that.

I was never big on crowder from a talent standpoint, just seemed like a solid volume PPR player but not much else.

Doctson got the start at the X receiver spot and played a career-high 54-of-64 (84.4%) snaps and seems to have passed mega-disappointment Terrelle Pryor on the depth chart. Pryor played just 30 snaps, while Jamison Crowder led the team with 58. Doctson didn't do a whole lot with his playing time, but coach Jay Gruden apparently wants to see more now that he's healthy. "We drafted Josh to be the No. 1 guy," Gruden said. "He just has had some injuries. Now that he's healthy, we want to see what he can do." Doctson is worth adding in all formats ahead of a home date against the Cowboys in Week 8. The sky is the limit for Doctson in this pass-happy offense.

And yesterday you asked

Will he play more than 19 snaps this week?


Looks like he might see triple that ROS
