Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or JuJu Smith-Schuster

Sunday, August 24, 4:31 AM

Wide receiver Demarcus Robinson found the end zone to put the first points on the board for the 49ers in their 30-23 victory over the Chargers on Sunday. The 30-year-old veteran reeled in a 22-yard pass from quarterback Tanner Mordecai to open up the second quarter of the preseason finale. Robinson finishes the preseason with seven receptions for 94 yards and one touchdown. Robinson will start his tenth NFL season serving a three-game suspension for violating the league's substance abuse policy in the offseason. When he returns to action, he will be in the mix as San Francisco's third wide receiver behind Jauan Jennings (calf) and Ricky Pearsall, at least until Brandon Aiyuk (knee) can take the field. Robinson may eventually prove himself to be a worthy flex streamer, but fantasy managers can avoid him in their upcoming drafts.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster finished second on the team in targets (five) in Week 1, hauling in five catches for 55 yards. With top Chiefs wideouts Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (suspension) both currently sidelined, Smith-Schuster could be a consistent feature in the team's passing game over the next few weeks. While the 28-year-old is not an explosive player, he has shown an ability to be a reliable short-area target, particularly when playing next to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Because of his projectable floor as a target earner, Smith-Schuster could be a useful bench receiver in deep PPR-leagues while Kansas City is battling wide receiver injuries
