Who Should I Start? Dawson Knox or Michael Mayer

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox could continue to see the bulk of the snap share, as Dalton Kincaid (oblique) remains questionable for Week 8. Despite the increased opportunities, Knox has failed to cash in. The seven-year veteran saw just two targets in their last game, but did haul in a 19-yard touchdown. Knox remains a touchdown-dependent play this week, but with the other weapons on the team, he is hard to trust for fantasy purposes. The Bills will need to limit the Panthers' offense to give the team extra opportunities against a stingy top-10 defense this week.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer hauled in 1-of-2 targets for ten yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Raiders were handily out-matched against their division rivals, and have now scored a total of 26 points across the last three contests. Mayer was out there for nearly all of the team's snaps (94%), though they netted just 95 total yards of offense. Las Vegas will head into its bye week at 2-5, sitting at the bottom of the AFC West. However, they figure to get both wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe) and tight end Brock Bowers (knee) back in the fold in Week 9, boosting the team's outlook. If that comes to fruition, Mayer should see his role shrink accordingly. If it doesn't, he'll be an intriguing streaming option against a susceptible Jaguars' pass defense.
