Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Isiah Pacheco

Saturday, October 11, 8:36 AM

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.

Kansas City running back Isiah Pacheco will face the Las Vegas Raiders at home in Week 7. Pacheco turned 12 carries in 51 rushing yards against the Detroit Lions in Week 6. Despite the 30-17 victory last week, Pacheco was unable to turn in a productive fantasy performance, but there are reasons for optimism moving forward. His 12 carries in Week 6 were a season-high and double the number of carries Kareem Hunt handled on Monday night. Pacheco's 51 rushing yards were also a season-high and hopefully a sign of things to come. The 26-year-old still has not collected a rushing touchdown this season, but that could change against the Raiders this week. Las Vegas has allowed the fifth-most rushing touchdowns this season. Pacheco has been efficient on limited touches this season, and his usage could be trending up. Pacheco is ranked RB28 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a flex-worthy player this week.
