Who Should I Start? Ashton Dulin or Casey Washington

Friday, August 8, 9:29 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin caught three of his seven targets for 54 yards in a 24-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in preseason action on Thursday. Dulin started alongside Adonai Mitchell and led the Colts in targets and receiving yards in the contest. The veteran wideout did most of his damage on a 25-yard grab from Daniel Jones in the second quarter, helping set the Colts up for a 39-yard field goal. From a fantasy perspective, Dulin is more valuable to the Colts for his skills on special teams and is unlikely to overtake any of Michael Pittman Jr, Josh Downs, or Adonai Mitchell in the wide-receiver room this season. The Colts will play their second preseason game against the Green Bay Packers next Saturday.

Atlanta Falcons rookie sixth-round wide receiver Casey Washington is already looking like a real value pick for the Falcons, as he's made some of the team's best catches in training camp and is in contention for Atlanta's fourth wide receiver role after the loss of Rondale Moore to a season-ending injury. Washington is competing with the likes of Chris Blair and KhaDarel Hodge for the No. 4 role behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III. The Falcons' offense is much more attractive to fantasy managers now that head coach Arthur Smith is gone and quarterback Kirk Cousins is leading the show. The 23-year-old had 49 catches for 670 yards and four touchdowns in his final season at Illinois last year. For now with just a depth role in Atlanta, Washington is one to watch in dynasty/keeper leagues.
