Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or Dontayvion Wicks

Saturday, October 18, 12:20 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has generated some fantasy buzz after Ricky Pearsall (knee) was ruled out. However, managers should exercise caution and avoid rushing to add him off waivers ahead of Week 7. The 31-year-old took on a big role with an 85 percent snap share and seven targets just two games ago, but his role dwindled when Jauan Jennings (ankle, rib, shoulder) returned last Sunday. With Jennings on track to play again this weekend, and Kendrick Bourne also expected to handle a significant role, Robinson's outlook is relatively bleak. He is third on the depth chart at wide receiver and should also lose targets to players like Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle. Managers in leagues with 14 teams or fewer can avoid Robinson this week.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf) exited during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 7 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. He is officially listed as questionable to return. The 24-year-old had two targets, one reception, and five yards at the time of his departure. The injury bug continues to be a factor for Wicks, who came into this week listed as questionable with an ankle injury. His absence will allow Malik Heath and Savion Williams to earn more snaps alongside Matthew Golden and Romeo Doubs.
