Who Should I Start? Gabriel Davis or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Monday, October 2, 12:32 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis caught each of his three targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Week 4's 48-20 win over the Miami Dolphins. It looked like Davis was in for one of his signature blow-up games after he got behind the defense for an 18-yard touchdown on the game's opening possession. However, he wasn't targeted again until late in the third quarter while Stefon Diggs tormented Miami's defenders all afternoon for 120 yards and three scores. Davis brought in a 34-yard pass to close the period and pad a fine fantasy day, which was his third straight with a TD catch. The 24-year-old deep threat will try to carry the scoring prowess into next Sunday's London matchup against a beatable Jacksonville Jaguars secondary.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
