Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Josh Reynolds

Friday, October 17, 1:26 PM

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith continues to disappoint fantasy managers as his turnover issues and poor efficiency have tanked his value across all formats. Smith has thrown at least one interception in all but one game this season and now faces a Kansas City Chiefs defense ranked among the top 10 against the pass. The veteran has failed to reach even modest fantasy production in recent weeks, with the Raiders' offensive inconsistency and reliance on the run game further limiting his upside. With few signs of improvement and a brutal matchup on deck, Smith projects as one of the lowest-scoring quarterbacks in Week 7. Fantasy managers can safely move on from the veteran, as his production doesn't justify a roster spot in any redraft or dynasty league formats.

New York Jets wide receiver Josh Reynolds will get a chance to operate as the team's WR1 in this weekend's home matchup with the Carolina Panthers. Reynolds has been off the fantasy radar all season in New York's low-volume passing attack. However, he'll have an opportunity to shine this Sunday with teammate Garrett Wilson (knee) battling a hyperextended knee. While Wilson is officially listed as doubtful, it's expected that he will be unavailable in Week 7, leaving Reynolds and tight end Mason Taylor as the Jets' primary pass catchers outside of running back Breece Hall. Even with the suspected bump in usage, the 30-year-old remains a lower-end option for fantasy, landing as RotoBaller's PPR WR47 for his outing with Carolina.
