Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Ladd McConkey

Friday, November 7, 12:04 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton continues to take a backseat to counterpart Troy Franklin in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Sutton was actually third in line for targets and total receiving yards on the night, ending with just three catches on four targets for 24 yards, and zero touchdowns. For the record, quarterback Bo Nix seemed to have a rough outing against the Raiders and only provided 150 passing yards and one touchdown on the night. He will continue to be on the field for most offensive plays and should have more opportunities when the offense is in a better rhythm. Sutton will look to rebound in a highly anticipated matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey is good to go for Week 11 after practicing fully on Friday, despite dealing with an ankle issue earlier in the week. McConkey proved himself as the Chargers' WR1 last week with four catches for a team-high 107 yards and a touchdown, including a notable 58-yard chunk play. He now faces a Jacksonville Jaguars secondary that has been struggling lately, giving up the ninth-most passing yards, the fourth-most receiving touchdowns, and 31 receptions of 20 or more yards. Although McConkey will face a difficult slot matchup against Jaguars DB Jarrian Jones (allowing 3.6 yards/target), his volume and recent performance make him a valuable option. With WR Quentin Johnston (shin) listed as questionable heading into Sunday, RotoBaller ranks McConkey as WR14 this week. He is expected to be a high-end WR2 with potential WR1 upside if Johnston misses.
