Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or CeeDee Lamb

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown converted his lone target into an eight-yard reception during Thursday's season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. It was an uncharacteristically quiet day for the veteran receiver, as he wasn't targeted until the Eagles' final offensive drive of the game. There's no question that he is still the alpha receiver in Philadelphia, so this seems to be a mere blip from which he should be able to bounce back. He'll have a chance to get redemption during Week 2 in a potential shootout against the reigning AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (undisclosed) converted 13 targets into seven receptions for 110 yards during Thursday's season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. However, he also had four drops, including three on Dallas' final drive of the game. After a brief trip to the medical tent, Lamb emerged and appeared to take responsibility for his late-game miscues. Perhaps the drops can simply be blamed on early-season jitters, as Lamb has a track record of being a top receiver in the NFL. After all, he still managed to post 18 fantasy points in PPR leagues. Managers should remain confident that he'll be a dependable fantasy WR1 going forward.
