Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or Dontayvion Wicks

Saturday, November 23, 2:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson should be viewed as a risky flex option heading into a Week 12 tilt against the Philadelphia Eagles. Over the past two weeks, Robinson has seen at least four targets in each contest but caught a total of just three passes across both games. However, in Week 9, Robinson enjoyed his best outing of the season, bringing in six of his nine targets for 94 yards and two scores. Despite seeing a consistent target share, Robinson has been unable to produce a consistent fantasy output. In addition, the Los Angeles Rams wide receiver room remains quite crowded with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, which will always hinder Robinson's weekly ceiling. Facing a tough Philadelphia Eagles secondary that has allowed the seventh-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts this season, fantasy managers should view him as a risky flex option in deeper formats.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks should be left on all benches in Week 12 when the Packers face the San Francisco 49ers. Wicks has not caught a pass in each of the past two games and has averaged just 2.0 targets during this span. Wicks has only surpassed double-digit PPR points on three occasions this season but fell below 7.0 PPR points in each of the other seven contests. Playing in a crowded Green Bay wide receiver room, Wicks has shown flashes of potential at times but has been unable to see a consistent dose of targets. As a result, fantasy managers in all formats should keep Wicks on their bench. However, managers in deeper formats should continue to stash Wicks on their roster as he could find a path to fantasy stardom if he can find his way toward the top of the depth chart down the stretch.
