Who Should I Start? Adam Thielen or Wan'Dale Robinson

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen should be kept out of starting lineups when his team takes on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in Ireland. Now that receiver Jordan Addison (suspension) is back in the fold, Thielen is likely to see a significant decrease in snaps. Even with high snap rates in the first three weeks, Thielen caught a meager two passes. At this point, it's fair to wonder if he'll earn more snaps or targets than fellow receiver Jalen Nailor, to say nothing of Addison, top receiver Justin Jefferson, and tight end T.J. Hockenson. Given his lack of production and his situation on the depth chart, Thielen can be sent to waiver wires in standard redraft leagues.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson caught six of his seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's Week 6 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The 24-year-old has been tasked with taking on New York's No. 1 receiver role ever since Malik Nabers (knee) went down with a season-ending injury. Robinson struggled with his newfound volume in Weeks 4 and 5, and he also had to deal with a quarterback change from Russell Wilson to Jaxson Dart at the same time. He finally capitalized on the opportunity during Thursday's divisional win. He looks comfortable in his expanded role and can be deployed as a high-end WR3/flex in Week 7 against Denver.
