Who Should I Start? Bo Melton or Casey Washington

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

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Casey Washington (concussion) did not pass the league's concussion protocol and will be inactive on Sunday against the Vikings. The 24-year-old had his best game in the NFL last week, hauling in three of his six targets for 33 yards, but suffered a concussion during the fourth quarter of the contest. The University of Illinois product's six targets were fourth-most on the team and more than veteran Ray-Ray McCloud III's five targets, potentially signaling a changing of the guard for the third wide receiver spot in the Atlanta offense, but it was likely more a product of Darnell Mooney's absence in Week 1 than anything else. With Mooney expected to play in Week 2 but with Washington out, we'll have to see how things shake out in Week 3 in order to get a better feel for Washington's role in this offense. For now, Washington can be left to the waiver wire in fantasy leagues.
