Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or Isaiah Bond

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has been unable to capitalize on the myriad injuries plaguing the team's offense. After serving a three-game suspension, Robinson had a one-game tuneup in Week 4 before being thrust into the starting lineup with Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs, shoulder) both succumbing to injuries. Robinson managed just three catches for 39 yards on seven targets with both receivers out in Week 5. After Jennings returned to action in Week 6, Robinson's snaps and targets plummeted. Pearsall has been declared out for Week 8, but with Jennings on the mend and George Kittle in his second week back from injured reserve, Robinson has no place on San Francisco's offense. Robinson projects as a WR6/7 this week and can be safely left on benches, if not the waiver wire.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond was not targeted in a 31-6 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. The rookie wideout had been trending up before that quiet outing, although he is not entirely at fault, as the Browns only passed the ball 18 times on a rainy, windy afternoon in Cleveland. Bond will now head on the road to face off against the New England Patriots in Week 8. The Patriots have been generous to opposing wideouts this season, allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Bond is a risky play thanks to a below-average Cleveland passing offense, but he's on the radar as a boom/bust WR5 in fantasy in Week 8.
