Who Should I Start? DeVonta Smith or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Friday, October 17, 8:20 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith is coming off of another underwhelming performance, failing to eclipse 50 receiving yards in a game for the third time this season last week. Managers never really know what they're in for when starting Smith, and the doubts will only grow stronger this week as he faces a strong Vikings defense. Minnesota has been able to shut down receivers for the most part this season, and Smith has taken a backseat to A.J. Brown and Dallas Goedert repeatedly. He's best seen as a WR3/FLX option in Week 7.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. cleared the NFL's concussion protocol just in time to practice Friday and be removed from the injury report. He was only able to play in 23% of the team's snaps in Week 6, which led to just the two targets, two catches, and 32 yards. Week 7 carries uncertainty yet again as Kyler Murray (foot) remains questionable, with Jacoby Brissett waiting for the call to go under center. Harrison and Murray still haven't fully clicked, so having Brissett under center may not necessarily be a bad thing. The Green Bay Packers have given up at least one receiving touchdown in all but one of their games, so Harrison could find some room to break free, but they're around the middle of the league in terms of defending the pass. Harrison is a solid flex play, but his ceiling is a bit limited right now.
