Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or JuJu Smith-Schuster

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins registered his best fantasy performance in half-PPR leagues since Week 5. The problem is that he only had four fantasy points in that game against the Cincinnati Bengals, which extends his streak of games with less than 10 fantasy points to 10 games. Despite the fact that he draws a favorable matchup in Week 14 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Hopkins is more of a dart throw option for fantasy managers in deeper leagues. In RotoBaller's rankings, Hopkins is projected as the WR72, so there should be better options on the waiver wire in standard-sized leagues.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has fallen off the fantasy radar after three lower-volume outings. The veteran receiver saw his snap share fall from 63 percent to 36 percent when Rashee Rice returned from suspension in Week 7, and he's been held to fewer than one-third of the snaps ever since then. During that three-week span, he had six total catches, bottoming out last week with just one target, one catch, and two receiving yards. The 28-year-old now finds himself behind Rice, Travis Kelce, Xavier Worthy, and Marquise Brown in the pecking order. As long as those pass catchers stay healthy, Smith-Schuster will remain off the fantasy radar on the other side of the Chiefs' Week 10 bye.
