Who Should I Start? David Sills V or Kristian Wilkerson

Tuesday, November 18, 6:43 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Davis Sills V should be in line for more work in Week 12 against the division-rival New Orleans Saints after Drake London (knee) suffered a PCL sprain in the overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Darnell Mooney and tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. should be quarterback Kirk Cousins' top targets for however long London is sidelined, but Sills inevitably should see more looks as well. The 29-year-old caught one of his two targets in the Week 11 loss for 11 yards, which was his second-best game of the year. In his first year in Atlanta, he's only caught four of his nine targets for 34 yards in 10 games, so it would be unreasonable to expect him to suddenly go off in fantasy in the coming weeks with London injured. Still, Sills is worth a look off the waiver wire in deeper leagues for WR depth. He's currently available in 100% of Yahoo leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson made a solid impression in the Raiders' preseason finale, snagging three catches for 35 yards and a touchdown in Friday's 24-24 tie to the San Francisco 49ers. While this performance boosts his chances of making the final roster, fantasy managers should temper their expectations. Even if Wilkerson secures a spot, he's likely to be no higher than fifth or sixth on the depth chart. In the Raiders' offense, this translates to minimal regular-season opportunities, barring multiple injuries ahead of him. His preseason touchdown showcases some red-zone potential, but Wilkerson's fantasy relevance will be severely limited with established targets like Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers ahead of him. At best, he's a name to remember for deep dynasty leagues or as a potential in-season waiver wire option if injuries decimate the Raiders' receiving corps. For now, Wilkerson remains off the radar in all but the deepest of fantasy formats.
