Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or CeeDee Lamb

Saturday, September 6, 10:13 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams will make his team debut against the Houston Texans on Sunday, and he carries significant value as a mid-to-low WR2 option. While Puka Nacua is expected to be the No. 1 receiver in Los Angeles, Adams will step in as an immediate contributor alongside him. Splitting last year between the Raiders and Jets, the veteran averaged 6.1 catches, 75.9 receiving yards, and 0.6 touchdowns per game. Now, with the Rams, he gets a quarterback upgrade while playing in an offense that should find the end zone far more often. Plus, he opens the year with a favorable matchup; the Texans allowed the eighth-most fantasy points and second-most touchdowns to wide receivers in 2024.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (undisclosed) converted 13 targets into seven receptions for 110 yards during Thursday's season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. However, he also had four drops, including three on Dallas' final drive of the game. After a brief trip to the medical tent, Lamb emerged and appeared to take responsibility for his late-game miscues. Perhaps the drops can simply be blamed on early-season jitters, as Lamb has a track record of being a top receiver in the NFL. After all, he still managed to post 18 fantasy points in PPR leagues. Managers should remain confident that he'll be a dependable fantasy WR1 going forward.
