Who Should I Start? Dontayvion Wicks or Roman Wilson

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks looks to take advantage of ample opportunity with some missing pass-catchers as the Packers travel to Cleveland to face the Browns in Week 3. Wicks took a backseat to fellow wide receivers Romeo Doubs and rookie Matthew Golden in the receiving pecking order through two games, but with the injury to Jayden Reed (clavicle) and now tight end Tucker Kraft (knee), Wicks could get a lot more opportunity in Week 3 to be the top target-earner in Green Bay. People forget that Wicks led the Packers in targets (76) last season, and with Reed out for several weeks, Wicks will be the primary slot receiver and may still rotate in on the outside for Green Bay. Wicks now has fantasy value entering Week 3, and when setting your flex, Wicks has a ton of upside this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson did not see the field much in the season opener and will hope for more involvement in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson logged just 10 of a possible 56 offensive snaps in Week 1, well behind starting wideouts DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III. With Wilson competing alongside Ben Skowronek and Scotty Miller for the WR3 role, and Pittsburgh showing a willingness to utilize multiple tight ends, his path to meaningful opportunities remains narrow. As a second-year player who struggled to stay healthy as a rookie, Wilson may emerge at some point, but he should only be viewed as a stash in dynasty formats and cannot be considered in redraft lineups this week.
