Who Should I Start? Garrett Wilson or Zay Flowers

Sunday, September 7, 8:35 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught seven of his nine targets for 95 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. His touchdown came on a big 33-yard strike from Justin Fields in their first game together. Wilson's big game should excite fantasy managers going forward. There was no question that Wilson is an impact receiver with big upside, but it was a little unclear what his role would look like in a Fields-led offense. Now, we have our answer, and it's exciting. Wilson remains a high-end WR2 with legitimate WR1 upside heading into next week's game against the Buffalo Bills.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers was one of the most popular names among the potential breakout candidates last season. In the end, he averaged almost the exact same amount of fantasy points per game in PPR leagues (12.1 vs 12.3). The speedy wideout finished as WR1 and a WR2 in three games each last season, which left him as a WR3 or worse in the 12 remaining weeks. The good news is that he's seen at least 100 targets in each of the last two seasons, which is why he continues to have WR2 upside, especially in PPR formats. Against the Buffalo Bills in Week 1, RotoBaller's projections have Flowers registering 11.2 fantasy points and finishing as the WR32.
