Who Should I Start? Devaughn Vele or Tre' Harris

Saturday, December 6, 12:44 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele caught all eight of his targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in the Week 13 loss to the Dolphins. He has emerged as the Saints' top receiver behind Chris Olave, recording 15 targets over his last two games and playing at least 87% of snaps in each contest since Rashid Shaheed's departure. Olave (back) is questionable to face Tampa Bay, and if he is unable to play, Vele would step in as the top wideout in what should be a pass-heavy offense against a Buccaneers defense allowing the fourth-most passing yards in the league. If Olave suits up, Vele becomes a more volatile WR3/WR4.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris had a 52.1% snap share and ran the third-most routes he has all season, but he only caught one pass on one target for 12 yards in the team's Week 11 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Harris is still well behind the team's other pass-catchers in terms of production and opportunities. He is set to face a Las Vegas Raiders defense that mainly runs zone coverage, a scheme that the rookie performs better against in every metric compared to man coverage. While the increased snap share is a positive sign for his long-term outlook, he remains too low on the depth chart to be a viable fantasy option. Fantasy managers should keep Harris on their bench unless a significant injury pushes him higher in the depth chart.
