Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Chris Olave

Friday, November 7, 9:26 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been one of the NFL's most consistent players at the position so far this season. The 26-year-old has recorded 59 catches for 635 yards and seven touchdowns on 74 targets across eight games played. He's earned double-digit targets in each of Detroit's last three contests, and he's logged at least six catches and 70 receiving yards in every game but two in 2025. St. Brown gets a favorable matchup on paper in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders. Through nine weeks, Washington ranks last in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (8.8) and 29th in passing touchdowns allowed (19). Making matters worse, top cornerback Marshon Lattimore (knee) suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 9. St. Brown profiles as a clear must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 10.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave hauled in three of four targets for 57 yards in the Week 9 loss to the Rams. His four targets marked a season low, though his 14.25 yards per target were a season high. Olave had built strong chemistry with Spencer Rattler before the second-year quarterback was benched, and with Tyler Shough now at the helm, the two will be forced to find their rhythm quickly. Olave ranked second in the league in targets from Weeks 1-8 under Rattler, making him the clear focal point of the passing game. With Rashid Shaheed, who saw nine targets in Week 9, being traded to the Seahawks, Olave is expected to assume an even larger role, assuming he isn't moved before the trade deadline as well. The Saints will visit the Panthers in Week 10, where Olave should be treated as a WR2 with upside.
