Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Kenyan Drake

Saturday, October 11, 10:44 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins was looking like a sleeper pick in deeper leagues when Lamar Jackson (hamstring) found him for some big plays the first couple of weeks. Since then, however, Hopkins has had a combined three receptions for 59 yards in three games and hasn't had a finish better than WR54. Then, we throw Cooper Rush and a defensive unit like the Los Angeles Rams into the mix, and everything gets a lot more bleak. In half-PPR formats, Hopkins is projected as the WR77, so fantasy managers will want to look elsewhere for an option with a higher ceiling in Week 6.

Running back Kenyan Drake announced his retirement on Friday. The 2016 No. 73 overall pick played for five teams after entering the NFL, making stops in Miami, Arizona, Las Vegas, Baltimore, and Green Bay. Throughout his career, he established himself as a legit dual-threat back, amassing 3,866 rushing yards and 1,655 receiving yards while totaling 41 touchdowns in 104 regular-season contests. Although Drake wasn't as potent near the end of his time in the National Football League, he still had more than a few productive years for fantasy managers.
