Who Should I Start? Easop Winston Jr. or Dayton Wade

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Easop Winston Jr. caught three of his four targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason loss to the Tennessee Titans. The score was an absolute beauty. Barely a step ahead of cornerback Tre Avery, Winston looked over his shoulder as he crossed the goal line in time to snag a 23-yard arcing pass from Sam Howell for the touchdown. Winston also had a 15-yard reception with eight seconds left in the first half, advancing a drive that resulted in a field goal before the break. Winston is playing for a roster spot and, assuming he does make the cut, would be unlikely to challenge DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, or Jaxon Smith-Njigba for targets.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Dayton Wade continued to be the top pass-catcher in both targets and receiving yards on Saturday afternoon. This time, the rookie out of Ole Miss registered a big-time scoring play in the third quarter while working with fellow rookie Emory Jones. Wade was targeted four times in this contest and caught two of them for 67 yards and a touchdown. His biggest play was a 56-yard catch-and-run where he used a great stutter-step move to fake out the defensive back and break free. Once he was wide open, Jones delivered a perfect ball and Wade trotted in for the score. After two preseason games, Wade has six receptions on nine targets for 94 yards and one touchdown. With Devontez Walker (ribs) ailing from a rib injury, Wade could be playing himself higher up on the depth chart than expected.
