Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or Romeo Doubs

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks returns to the Big Easy after previously playing with the team from 2014-2016. Last year in Dallas, he caught 26 passes for 259 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games. Cooks was named one of eight team captains ahead of Week 1 against the Cardinals and is listed as a starter. However, he'll have to compete with Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and star running back Alvin Kamara for targets while second-year quarterback Spencer Rattler is under center. For fantasy purposes, Cooks should be off radars, with only slight appeal if any of the primary pass-catchers miss time.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs got off to a quick start during Thursday's game against the Washington Commanders. Doubs got the scoring started with a five-yard touchdown grab in the first quarter. Sadly, Doubs didn't do much on the field after that. He finished this game by hauling in three of his five targets for 28 yards and one score in the win. It's worth noting that the Packers lost wideout Jayden Reed (shoulder) during this game. His absence would likely open up a bigger role for Doubs going forward. Despite that, Doubs remains in the WR4 range for the Week 3 matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
