Who Should I Start? Allen Lazard or Bo Melton

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard will make his 2025 debut in Week 2 against the division-rival Buffalo Bills on Sunday after he was a healthy scratch in the season-opening loss last Sunday to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Lazard might only be active because Josh Reynolds is out with a hamstring injury. Although it's notable for New York's passing attack, we wouldn't recommend the 29-year-old as a streaming option this weekend, even in deep fantasy leagues. Garrett Wilson will continue to draw the majority of aerial targets from quarterback Justin Fields. Lazard, who has struggled with drops in his two seasons with the Jets, will be competing for targets with Tyler Johnson mostly. Last year in New York, Lazard bounced back from a rough 2023 campaign to catch 37 passes for 530 yards and six touchdowns in 12 games (10 starts).

Green Bay Packers fourth-year veteran Bo Melton is officially switching from wide receiver to cornerback, according to NFL.com. The 2022 seventh-round pick out of Rutgers was originally selected by the Seattle Seahawks but signed with Green Bay after being released following training camp. He did not appear in a game during his rookie season, but he has tallied 24 receptions for 309 yards and one touchdown over the last two seasons (22 games). Now at cornerback, he will likely have a tough time earning snaps, but crazier things have happened. Based on these developments, it's safe to drop him in the deepest of dynasty fantasy football leagues
