| 0:00.0 | A lot has changed through a month of the NFL season, and a good amount of that happened in |
| 0:03.6 | week four. There was some key player usage that I found interesting, but I'm pretty sure your |
| 0:07.3 | league mates didn't pick up on. And it's a good idea to trade for these players who saw that |
| 0:11.1 | sneaky usage before week five. Now, we'll actually start with Deonté Johnson, who yes, he did not |
| 0:15.3 | play in week four due to injury, but because what happened in the Steelers' offense, he is now a target for you. Pittsburgh's offense looked atrocious. |
| 0:21.4 | Kenny Pickett got injured and is going to miss some time, and Mike Tomlin said, yeah, |
| 0:24.8 | there's going to be changes. |
| 0:25.8 | And not to mention, Deontay hasn't played it in a while, so he's taking a lot of zeros for |
| 0:28.9 | your leaguemate who might be starting to get frustrated. |
| 0:31.0 | And you can check out this tweet I put out there. Johnson with Kenny Pickett only averages nine fantasy points per game. But with Mitch Trubisky, who is now going to be the starter, on a pretty decent sample, he averages 13 fantasy points on |
| 0:41.7 | nine targets per game. Now, of course, the question becomes, when will Deonté return? A lot of people |
| 0:45.6 | are going to be saying it's going to be week seven, which maybe Kenny Pickett is back by them, |
| 0:49.0 | but maybe he's not. And all we have this year out of Deontay Johnson is two quarters of football. One half of football week |
| 0:54.2 | against the 49ers, the number one defense in the NFL. And oh yeah, he continued to do |
| 0:57.8 | Deontay Johnson things, averaging six targets in one half, less than a half of football. And just as |
| 1:02.5 | a reminder, Deonté ranked ninth in wide receiver usage last year, had 147 targets. And since 2019, |
| 1:07.8 | he has the fourth most targets in the NFL. He's easily a top 20 wide receiver in the NFL when healthy, |
| 1:12.6 | and you could probably get him a lot cheaper than that right now. |
| 1:14.7 | Last season, Deante ranked top 10 at beating both man and zone coverage. |
| 1:18.5 | And the takeaway there is that he knows how to get open, |
| 1:20.3 | which means it doesn't really matter who his quarterback is for the most part. |
| 1:22.8 | He'll be getting open, going by him. Next up on this list is Joe Mixen, who continues to see elite usage in all areas. |
