## More availability calls

The same kind of call, about other players and teams.

- Andrew Erickson on Jake Ferguson: In his Week 4 buy/sell column, Erickson makes a handful of forward-looking calls: Chase Brown remains Cincinnati's lead back, Keenan Allen is no better than the Colts' third pass-catcher, Mack Hollins is New England's No. 1 target, Jeremiyah Love owns Arizona's backfield, George Kittle is again a top-five fantasy tight end, and Brock Purdy belongs in the MVP conversation. He also makes several availability calls for Week 4 and on Jayden Daniels' return. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/3502f74a-4354-4631-8698-10cd219c53c1 (not settled)
- Jacob Herlin on Bryce Young: Ranks all 32 team defenses for fantasy purposes in Week 4, with projected points allowed, sacks, turnovers and fantasy points, putting Minnesota first and Carolina last. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/594ed80e-c3ac-49aa-a927-751407fc26bf (not settled)
- Mike Fanelli on Jayden Daniels: Fanelli expects Jayden Daniels to sit out Washington's Week 4 game in London against the Colts, roughly two weeks after dislocating his elbow, leaving Marcus Mariota to start. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/58e08e6d-989c-437b-a697-dc91f145fb3c (not settled)
- Ralph Ventre on Christian Benford: Ventre expects Christian Benford's toe injury to sideline him for at least the Week 4 game against New England, and believes the Bills will have to add a cornerback to the 53-man roster this week — likely by moving Benford to injured reserve — with practice squad rookie Kani Walker the most likely player elevated. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/94b844fe-bb22-4517-81f5-6263eb0213f1 (not settled)
- Fox Sports on Jayden Daniels: With surgery ruled out, Washington's outlet speculates Jayden Daniels avoids injured reserve and, if he isn't back for the Week 4 game in London, returns either in Week 5 against the Giants or Week 6 against the 49ers. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/38c42e1c-1990-46fb-a145-d6cf5a1d8c33 (not settled)
- Ian Rapoport on J.J. McCarthy: On the JJ McCarthy trade he expects Jameis Winston to keep starting for the Giants while McCarthy learns, with McCarthy ready to go around midseason weeks six through eight; he also expects Tyson Bagent to start for the Bears next week with Caleb Williams out. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/b34b40aa-92b6-4ca8-95a0-4c25741e3d19 (not settled)

Accuracy is 0-100 against what actually happened. The naive guess is what a strategy requiring no knowledge would have scored on the same call — the difference is the skill, and it is what the MissedTakes Score averages.
