Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Luke McCaffrey

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.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey will serve as the No. 1 wideout for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. The Commanders will be without Terry McLaurin (quad), Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel), and Noah Brown (groin) for this Week 7 contest. McCaffrey will serve as the top option against the Cowboys defense that is without starting defensive back Trevon Diggs (concussion) for this game. McCaffrey has been quiet this season, but could offer flex value for needy fantasy managers. The Commanders are limited on options, so McCaffrey should see plenty of opportunities.
