Who Should I Start? Chris Olave or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Sunday, October 1, 10:19 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave had a disappointing outing on Sunday, grabbing only one of six targets for just four yards. Olave nearly hauled in a deep pass in the end zone which would have salvaged his fantasy day, but the attempt was broken up. While Olave's fantasy day was disappointing, he should remain in lineups. It was an overall bad day for the New Orleans offense, and Olave will remain the top target for quarterback Derek Carr.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
