Who Should I Start? Baker Mayfield or Jerry Jeudy

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (knee, oblique) is ready to go for the Week 8 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Mayfield is a little banged up right now, but that's not going to stop him from suiting up. The 28-year-old wasn't able to offer much to fantasy managers last week. Mayfield threw for 228 passing yards with one touchdown and one interception in the loss to the Detroit Lions. As always, Mayfield will be playing shorthanded with Chris Godwin (leg), Mike Evans (collarbone), and Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) all sidelined. However, the Bucs will still have Emeka Egbuka, so Mayfield should be able to offer QB1 value against the below average Saints defense.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (knee) has practiced on a limited basis on Thursday and Friday after missing practice on Wednesday. He is officially listed as questionable with a knee injury heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the New England Patriots. If he ultimately ends up playing, Jeudy will look to break a season-long cold streak as he has yet to go over 51 receiving yards since Week 1. The Patriots have struggled against receivers this season, allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to the position. If Jeudy ends up playing, he would settle in as a low-end WR4 in fantasy leagues. If he sits, look for Isaiah Bond, Jamari Thrash, and maybe even Malachi Corley to see extra opportunities for the Cleveland passing offense.
