Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or D.K. Metcalf

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams caught 13 of 19 targets for 172 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the team's 23-18 loss to the Steelers on Sunday night. Adams routinely found holes in the Pittsburgh defense leading to a 43% target share on the night, including an athletic first-quarter 32-yard touchdown reception in double coverage. The 30-year-old has now tallied 36 targets in three games and continues to be a locked and loaded WR1. Adams faces off with the Chargers and their porous pass defense next week.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf led the team with six catches and 112 receiving yards against the Carolina Panthers in Week 3. Metcalf's first four receptions came in the first half and all went for 19 yards or longer. After making two more catches on the Seahawks' opening drive of the third quarter, the fifth-year veteran was not thrown to again. In the second half, Seattle's offensive game plan leaned heavily on the run game and relied on the tight ends to make gains through the air. Metcalf's two catches, along with Jake Bobo's fourth-quarter touchdown, represented the only wide receiver targets after halftime, so maybe a change was made to the game plan during the break. Seattle takes on the New York Giants in Week 4, where Metcalf can be trusted to put up WR2 numbers as long as he can keep himself in the game.
