Who Should I Start? DeVonta Smith or Trey Palmer

Friday, November 7, 10:48 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has tallied at least nine targets and over 80 receiving yards in three of his last four games as he heads into Monday Night Football versus the Packers this week. Smith has actually garnered more receiving yards and receptions than fellow star WR A.J. Brown this season, even without counting the one game Smith played in that Brown missed. However, to illustrate his boom-or-bust nature, taking away his two best outings this season plummets Smith's yards per game from 73.5 to 48.5. Green Bay is in the middle of the pack, giving up the 16th-most fantasy points to WRs this year, so it comes down to a matter of what version of DeVonta Smith managers will see in Week 10. His recent play has been enough to warrant him a WR2 spot for now.

The New Orleans Saints have claimed wide receiver Trey Palmer off waivers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 24-year-old was only targeted in the Bucs' third and final preseason game, as he caught one pass for 13 yards. He was a sixth-round pick in 2023 but has caught just 51 passes for 557 yards and four touchdowns over the course of two NFL seasons. After missing out on a roster spot in Tampa Bay, he'll now get a fresh start with the Saints. He'll likely rank near the bottom of the depth chart, competing with the likes of Cedrick Wilson Jr., Mason Tipton, and Devaughn Vele.
