We’re heading into this week’s Thursday Night Football slate on SuperDraft, featuring the Baltimore Ravens and Miami Dolphins. The Tua Tagovailoa saga continues in Miami, with the second-year QB a game-time decision to start. No matter who is under center for the Dolphins, this will be a tough matchup.
Top Plays
Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens (Champion: 1.5x | Superflex: 1x Multiplier)
Jackson may have a low multiplier coming into the showdown slate, but the man can still dominate any defense he faces. The Miami Dolphins defense is currently allowing the sixth-most points against quarterbacks on SuperDraft with 22.5. While Baltimore has had some games that have solely showcased their running backs, Latavius Murray is doubtful for this matchup, which could lead to more options for Jackson to defeat this defense by using his own feet if the passing game isn’t there.
Rashod Bateman, Baltimore Ravens (Champion: 3.4x | Superflex: 2.25x)
Bateman is coming off of an 8-target week rolling into Thursday night. While Marquise Brown holds the best matchup, Bateman is not far behind on FTN Daily’s WR/CB matchup tool. He is coming off a 7.7-point fantasy game where he had five receptions for 52 yards with just one red-zone target. Bateman is also averaging six targets per game and if he’s able to secure his first touchdown of the season, his multiplier will help him pay off.
Mike Gesicki, Miami Dolphins (Champion: 2.95x| Superflex: 1.95x)
Gesicki will most likely come in as one of the top two highest-rostered Dolphins players and for good reason. The Ravens give up the second-most points to the tight end position with 15.7 per game. Gesicki has shown to be a consistent tight end but has fallen slightly short in recent previous weeks. The targets are there for him, but it’s the production of those targets that have held him back. Before the past two weeks, he put up 18 and 17.5 fantasy points back-to-back, showcasing what he is capable of. Now, the red zone targets are not there for Gesicki as he averages about one red-zone target per game, but besides that, the targets in majority of the drives will be there for him.
