Who Should I Start? Drake London or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London drew a healthy eight targets in Week 3, turning them into five catches for 55 yards. The fourth-year wideout continues to be an integral part of the team's passing attack, but unfortunately, quarterback Michael Penix Jr. has yet to throw a touchdown to any of his wide receivers so far this year. That could change in Week 4 against a Washington defense that just allowed three receiving touchdowns last week, and a defense that has been tougher against the run. London will continue to be involved, leading the team with a 26 percent target share in 2025, and the 6-foot-4 receiver has seen his aDOT grow from 6.94 after the first two games to 8.63 after Week 3. The 24-year-old looks like a low-end WR1 this week, but could finish higher if he finally finds the end zone.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught four of his five targets for 79 yards during Thursday's Week 4 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He also rushed for 11 yards on three carries. All in all, it was a solid showing from Smith-Njigba, but nothing special. Additionally, fantasy managers might be surprised to see that the young receiver only had five targets and four catches. Both of these numbers tied for the team-high, but it's still noteworthy for fantasy football. Managers should rest assured that the Seahawks used a run-heavy approach on Thursday because they were leading by two scores for a large portion of the game. As a result, there weren't many passes to go around; Sam Darnold only threw the ball 26 times. Smith-Njigba's receiving volume should take a big jump in a potential shootout next week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He continues to rank as a low-end WR1 for fantasy football.
