Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Jordan Addison

Saturday, October 11, 9:58 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry continues to see his fantasy value diminish each week. In half-PPR formats, he's finished in RB1 territory only one time and has scored double-digit fantasy points twice. He only has one more touchdown than he does fumbles, and he still doesn't play any part in the passing game. Their opponent, the Los Angeles Rams, is currently ranked as the third-toughest team against running backs in fantasy as they give up just 15.56 fantasy points per matchup. They held Christian McCaffrey to 57 yards on 22 carries and Saquon Barkley to 46 yards on 18 carries. That combined with the Ravens' offensive line issues and fullback Patrick Ricard (calf) still sidelined, means Henry is projected to finish around RB19.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison caught nine of 12 targets for 128 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Eagles. Addison was peppered with targets from quarterback Carson Wentz all game, with the 12 targets matching a career high for the 23-year-old wideout. He hasn't missed a beat since returning from his three-game suspension to begin the season, recording 18 catches for 283 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets in three games. The quarterback situation will be one to monitor for Addison moving forward, but he is talented enough to produce regardless. He's firmly in the WR2/WR3 mix moving forward.
