Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Khalil Shakir

Monday, December 23, 1:22 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb caught seven of his eight targets for 105 yards during Sunday's Week 16 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 25-year-old has remained productive with Cooper Rush under center, delivering steady WR1-caliber numbers over the last three weeks. Fantasy managers should continue to start their studs, including Lamb, as the playoffs continue. However, managers should also temper expectations next week as Lamb takes on the Philadelphia Eagles, who have one of the NFL's best secondaries in terms of limiting opposing receivers' fantasy points. The last time he faced Philadelphia, the Cowboys' top receiver caught just six of 10 targets for just 21 yards through the air.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught two passes for 22 yards in the team's 24-21 win over the New England Patriots. Two receptions tied a season-low mark for the slot receiver. Shakir led Buffalo wide receivers with six targets (only trailed tight end Dalton Kincaid's seven) but couldn't do much with the opportunities. Josh Allen typically targets Shakir on the short and intermediate routes. The pair couldn't connect on a couple of deep shots on Sunday. The entire Buffalo passing game was out of sync as Allen totaled 154 passing yards. Shakir and the Bills host the New York Jets next weekend.
