Who Should I Start? Dontayvion Wicks or Tory Horton

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks could be the beneficiary of a great matchup when the Packers travel down to AT&T Stadium as Green Bay squares off with the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Wicks saw his routes increase with Jayden Reed (clavicle, foot) out of the lineup. Seeing just four targets and catching just two balls for 21 yards out of the slot for the Packers, Wicks had a tough matchup like everybody else did against the Browns in Week 3. For Week 4, that matchup becomes a lot easier as the Dallas Cowboys represent one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL. Because the Packers are so spread out on offense and the pass volume is limited, Wicks is merely a low-end flex play in Week 4 despite the great matchup on deck.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton has flashed high-end potential through his first five NFL games, recording nine catches for 113 yards and three touchdowns on 14 targets. The 22-year-old has established himself as the clear WR3 in Seattle alongside star wideouts Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Horton is tough to trust for fantasy managers in the short term because of his low target volume in a run-heavy Seahawks offense. Still, he's a name to monitor and a player for deep-league fantasy managers to stash for his long-term upside.
