Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or CeeDee Lamb

Sunday, October 1, 7:31 PM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams had eight receptions for 75 yards on 13 targets in the Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Adams had a pedestrian stat line compared to his massive performance in Week 3, but the veteran receiver was still productive. The 30-year-old exited the game in the first half with a shoulder injury but was able to return just before halftime. With Jimmy Garoppolo ruled out, Adams caught passes from Raiders rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell. O'Connell's play was inconsistent, and the rookie did not hit his stride until the last two drives of the game. That said, Adams was still the top target in the passing game and is a strong start, regardless of who is behind center. The Raiders wide receiver has a Week 5 matchup with Jaire Alexander and the Green Bay Packers. Alexander is a tough matchup, but Adams is one of the best wide receivers in football and should have some familiarity going against his former teammate. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Adams' injury status regarding his shoulder, but he will be a strong WR1 next week and every week for the foreseeable future.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb scored a touchdown in a Week 4 win over the New England Patriots. With the Cowboys dominating on defense once again, the offense didn't need to do much, but Lamb caught four passes on six targets for 36 yards. His touchdown came on a 20-yard pass from Dak Prescott at the end of the first quarter. Lamb should be back on his WR1 trajectory in a Week 5 game against the San Francisco 49ers.
