Who Should I Start? Chris Olave or RJ Harvey

Sunday, October 19, 5:57 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave caught five of his seven targets for 98 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Chicago Bears. Olave briefly exited the contest in the first half and was evaluated in the medical tent, but he returned to the game and proceeded to score a pair of touchdowns. This was the first two-touchdown game of Olave's career, and he also set a new career-high in fantasy points (26.8 in PPR leagues). The 25-year-old has sneakily been one of the most consistent fantasy receivers this year, scoring double-digit points in all seven of his games so far. As long as he can continue to avoid the injury bug, he'll remain a strong WR2 option in most leagues. He faces off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next week.

Denver Broncos rookie running back RJ Harvey was able to earn a season-best 41% of snaps in Week 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals. However, this was due to replacing J.K. Dobbins for the majority of the 4th quarter in a blowout win. The rookie running back will look to carve out a role against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. While Harvey will increasingly develop confidence in the coaching staff and through his own experience on the field, it's likely that, barring an injury to Dobbins, he will continue to be a change-of-pace back in closer games. The explosive rookie is developing some standalone value as a flex starter. Still, Dobbins' strong performances might continue to hold him back from reaching his actual ceiling as a talented 2nd round pick. Harvey is considered a solid FLEX play and is currently RB34 in the latest RotoBaller Week 5 rankings.
