Who Should I Start? Elic Ayomanor or Luther Burden III

Tuesday, November 11, 1:44 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has had a solid rookie season through nine games, leading the team in receiving with 26 receptions for 323 yards and two touchdowns on 53 targets. Ayomanor has recorded multiple receptions in every game, but has only eclipsed 50 receiving yards twice in a struggling Titans offense. The rookie out of Stanford posted back-to-back games with touchdowns in Weeks 2 and three, scoring a combined 29.4 PPR points. However, in six games since then, Ayomanor has totaled just 37.6 total fantasy points. The rookie wideout could be an intriguing add off the waiver wire for Week 11 as he may see an increase in targets and production after the team's Week 10 bye, while continuing to build a rapport with fellow rookie Cameron Ward, but he's also been outproduced by Chimere Dike in recent weeks.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III has been a playmaker in his limited opportunity this season, catching 16 of his 18 targets for 222 yards and a touchdown to go with two rushes for six yards in eight games this season. Burden is seeing his reps increase as the season progresses and posted season highs in both snaps and routes in Chicago's Week 10 win over the New York Giants. The rookie second-rounder played 57.6% of the snaps, his first game with a snap share above 50%, and ran 46.3% of the team's routes. Head coach Ben Johnson said that Burden will see more targets moving forward as he continues to get more comfortable in the offense. The rookie out of Missouri had an exciting prospect profile with elite athletic traits and is worth adding off the waiver wire in 12-team leagues to see how his role expands.
