Who Should I Start? Cedrick Wilson Jr. or Tyler Johnson

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. played more snaps than Nick Westbrook-Ikhine for the first time this season in Week 11 before the team's bye week. He served as the team's third receiver behind Jaylen Waddle and Malik Washington, but he didn't get any targets. He has just two catches for nine yards on the season, but he has been playing more snaps lately, even though his utilization has still been very light. Since the Dolphins don't air it out very much, he doesn't bring much upside, but it is worth noting that he seems to be moving up the depth chart. Wilson is only the WR127 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, so he can be left on the waiver wire for now, but keep an eye on Wilson's usage in the coming weeks, since he could be moving onto the radar for deep league waivers if he keeps getting more snaps.

New York Jets wide receiver Tyler Johnson is due for an elevated workload in Week 11's road clash with the New England Patriots. The sixth-year pro notched back-to-back three-catch efforts ahead of his bye week, posting at least 60 yards in each contest, although he failed to reel in his lone target in last weekend's win over the Browns, while Justin Fields netted 42 passing yards. Things won't be much easier against their division rivals, considering New England has allowed the sixth-fewest points (19.2) and eighth-fewest yards (306.2) per game. Johnson might be an ok flier in DFS formats, but shouldn't be on fantasy managers' radars in conventional lineup leagues. Even with the suspected uptick in volume, an up-and-down Jets' offense limits the 27-year-old's ceiling. He'll wind up as RotoBaller's PPR WR77 for his outing with the Patriots.
