Delanie Walker leads team in receiving, rushes for touchdown in Week 2 win.

Walker caught four passes for 61 yards and vultured a touchdown in the third quarter with a one-yard rush. The veteran is off to a strong start in 2017, and he still looks like Marcus Mariota’s most-trusted target. Walker will be a midrange/low-end TE1 against Seattle in Week 3.

Ifeanyi Momah catches long pass in Week 2.

In the absence of Jermaine Gresham (ribs), Momah was asked to do more for the Cardinals. He got behind the defense and caught a 46-yard pass from Carson Palmer on his lone reception against Indy. Momah is off the fantasy radar, despite his intriguing physical tools.

Jalston Fowler scores in win over the Jaguars.

Fowler rushed once for a three-yard score. It was his first touchdown since his rookie year in 2015, so he’s obviously not a fantasy option blocking for DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry.

Jaron Brown leads Cardinals in targets in Week 2.

Brown had a team-high 11 targets and clearly has the trust of Bruce Arians and Carson Palmer. He caught four of the targets for 73 yards against the Colts. If John Brown (quad) is out again, Jaron Brown could get another several targets in Week 3 against Dallas.

J.J. Nelson catches long touchdown in Week 2.

After John Brown (quad) was ruled out, the Nelson was a popular Week 2 sleeper against a susceptible Colts secondary, and the lightning fast deep threat paid off for fantasy owners that put him in their lineups. Nelson had five receptions for 120 yards, including a 45-yard touchdown on a deep ball from Carson Palmer. If Brown is forced to miss another game, Nelson wouldn’t be a terrible FLEX option against the Cowboys in Week 3. The game is on Monday night though, so you’re risking it if Brown hasn’t yet been ruled out by the time you need to set your lineup.

DeMarco Murray outplayed by Derrick Henry in Week 2 win.

Murray—who may have been dealing with a hamstring issue that bothered him in the preseason—rushed just nine times for 25 yards. He also caught a three-yard pass, but backup Derrick Henry ran through Jacksonville with 92 yards and a score on 14 carries. We’ll keep an eye on the injury report this week, but there’s probably a chance that Tennessee simply gave Henry more work based on performance. Murray will be more of a low-end RB2 next week against Seattle, and Henry is right on his heels.

Andre Ellington gets five touches in Cardinals’ win.

With David Johnson out, Ellington worked as the primary passing back for Arizona, catching three passes (one five targets) for 12 yards while adding two carries for 11 yards. For now, Ellington is just a very risky FLEX play.
