Who Should I Start? Drake London or Zay Flowers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London broke out of an early-season slump with a dominant Week 4 performance in his team's 34-27 win over the Washington Commanders. London recorded eight catches for 110 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. The 24-year-old has now logged 24 receptions for 269 yards and a score on 37 targets through four games. London's current average of 9.25 targets per game would put him on pace for over 150 targets in a 17-game season, so his production going forward is more a question of efficiency than volume. As long as he stays healthy, London profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been the team's most consistent option in the passing game so far this season, recording 23 receptions for 305 yards and a touchdown on 31 targets through four games. Unfortunately for Flowers, he'll be catching passes from backup quarterback Cooper Rush in Week 5 instead of Lamar Jackson (hamstring), who is out with a hamstring injury. The Ravens also face a difficult matchup in Week 5 against the Houston Texans, who have allowed the seventh-fewest passing yards in the NFL. Rush sports a career completion rate of 60.9%, so he could supply Flowers with a consistent volume of short-area targets. Flowers profiles as a low-end fantasy WR2/high-end WR3/flex option in Week 5 against Houston.
