Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Travis Hunter

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.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen stated the team plans to expand rookie wide receiver Travis Hunter's role moving forward, utilizing his elite speed and athleticism more frequently within the offense. The second overall pick has caught 20 of 31 targets for 197 yards but has yet to find the end zone in his debut season. Despite early frustrations for fantasy managers, Coen's comments suggest an uptick in volume could be coming soon. Hunter's versatility as both a wide receiver and cornerback makes him one of the league's most dynamic young players, and additional touches could quickly boost his fantasy value. Managers in deeper leagues may want to hold tight, as Hunter's breakout could be on the horizon.
