Until week 10, Adonai Mitchell hadn’t built off of his pre NFL career momentum.  He produced at 2 top college programs, shocked draft analysts with a 4.34 40-yard dash on a 6’2” 205 lb. frame and was selected in the second round of the NFL Draft.

Unfortunately his landing spot is arguably the worst in the league. A crowded wide receiver room on a run heavy team with 2 underperforming quarterbacks all have made it tough for the rookie to shine. 

With Michael Pittman Jr. out in week 10, Mitchell finally earned a 93% snap share and showed out pretty well. He had a perfect 6 catches on 6 targets for 71 yards. He ended the day with 1 yard fewer than Josh Downs on 4 fewer targets. Mitchell’s mini breakout was good for a career best 13.1 ppr fantasy points, making him an intriguing stash for deep leagues and a viable hold in Dynasty.
