Who Should I Start? Donovan Peoples-Jones or Chase Claypool

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones did very little in the Week 2 loss to the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night, catching just one of his four targets for a seven-yard gain. There was a chance that Peoples-Jones was going to have a big role in this one with Amari Cooper questionable to play due to a groin injury, but Cooper was active and led the Browns with seven receptions on 10 targets for 90 yards in the 26-22 loss. DPJ did play a team-high 88.1 percent of the offensive snaps, but he just wasn't targeted much by a struggling Deshaun Watson. So far, Cooper and Elijah Moore have been Watson's favorite targets, with People-Jones catching only two passes for 19 yards through the season's first two weeks.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Chase Claypool caught three passes for 36 yards, including one touchdown, in the team's 27-17 loss to the Buccaneers in Week 2. The much-maligned Claypool came into the game under the microscope of Bears fans and delivered a nice 20-yard touchdown catch to pull Chicago within three points in the fourth quarter. But Claypool's performance was also marred by penalties and missed block assignments. The talented, but inconsistent, receiver put a foot forward in the right direction, but is a long ways away from being a viable fantasy option.
