Carson Wentz’s fantasy ceiling hinges on the surrounding cast and coaching. The Vikings’ setup under Kevin O’Connell promises structure, a solid offensive line, and weapons that fit his approach. Wentz’s last meaningful season was 2022 with Washington, behind a weak unit, so his numbers then reflected roster quality more than raw talent.

Historically, his output tracks roster strength: when pass and run blocking are solid and receivers are productive, he performs; when the supporting cast falters, so does he. Minnesota could supply a better environment, and top OL play could unlock a steady floor with upside if protection holds and the run game stays competent.

Green Bay gets a big lift as Zach Tom and Aaron Banks return to practice in limited fashion, with Bo Melton back as well, ahead of a Week 3 duel with Cleveland. Cleveland’s defense is elite—No. 1 in total and rushing D—and will test Green Bay’s rebuilt line that has struggled to start the season. Belton flashed in Tom’s absence, while Jordan Morgan works to adapt as Banks’ return shapes the interior. The trench battle should define the fantasy upside in this one.

Las Vegas travels to Washington on a short week after a Monday night defeat, awaiting clarity from Washington on Jayden Daniels’ knee. If Daniels can’t go, Marcus Mariota would take the helm. Vegas’ offense struggled last week, amassing only 218 yards as Geno Smith and the Chargers gashed them with turnovers. The latest line has Washington favored by 3.5 with a 44.5-point total, signaling a tight, grinder of a game with high fantasy leverage on volume for the Raiders’ targets and Washington’s playmakers, depending on Daniels’ health.

Injury updates and depth charts add nuance for fantasy managers: Noah Brown, John Bates, and Jonathan Jones are questionable or IR-infected for Washington, while Ashton Jeanty is pushing for more carries in Vegas. Jakobi Meyers is the Raiders’ on-field target leader, with 14 catches through two games, and Daniels’ status will drive the ceiling for both teams’ pass-catch groups. Rotoworld’s betting model leans into a close, high-variance game with opportunities for big swings in DFS and props.
