Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Dillon Gabriel

Friday, October 10, 12:31 AM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught six of his nine targets for 80 yards during Thursday's Week 6 loss to the New York Giants. Brown tied his season high in receptions and now has at least eight targets in five consecutive games. While his yardage has varied from week to week, and he still has just one touchdown this year, the star receiver appears to be trending in the right direction following his early-season frustrations. He should rank as a solid WR2 option for Week 7 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel will make his second career start in a Week 6 road matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gabriel's debut against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 5 was solid as he threw for 190 yards and tossed two touchdowns in a 21-17 loss. The Browns didn't ask him to do much as most of his pass attempts were close to the line of scrimmage, but Gabriel took care of the ball and generally kept the offense moving. Pittsburgh's defense has struggled this season, allowing the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. That being said, this is a tough spot on the road against a divisional foe against whom the Browns have historically struggled, leaving Gabriel as a high-end QB3 in Week 6.
