Should I Start Chimere Dike?

Monday, May 4, 7:36 AM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike's dynasty value may be reduced after the team brought in elite competition via the NFL Draft. The Titans selected Carnell Tate fourth overall, in a move that completely reset the wide receiver pecking order in Tennessee. Tate will be the immediate No. 1 receiver, while offseason signing Wan'Dale Robinson slots into the No. 2 role. That leaves Dike, Elic Ayomanor, and Calvin Ridley all competing for the third spot on the depth chart. Even if Dike wins that job, he won't have a whole lot of fantasy appeal in a Cameron Ward-led offense that could continue to experience growing pains. At the same time, there's also a chance he falls to fifth on the depth chart. Sure, Dike was the WR50 last year with 48 catches, 423 yards, and four touchdowns, but he had fewer yards than Ayomanor and he has a far less established track record than Ridley. The dynasty outlook is bleak for Dike as long as he remains in Tennessee.
