Who Should I Start? George Pickens or Drake Maye

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens is headed for unrestricted free agency next March, but the team wants to bring him back following a career-best season. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Cowboys are "more likely" to franchise tag Pickens than allow him to test unrestricted free agency. By tagging him, the team would lock him into a one-year deal worth more than $28 million while gaining the exclusive rights to negotiate a longer-term extension with him. The 24-year-old is worth every penny, catching 58 passes for 908 yards and seven touchdowns in his first season with the Cowboys after being acquired from the Pittsburgh Steelers. He ranks as the overall WR4 in PPR leagues and has complemented CeeDee Lamb quite nicely in Dallas' high-powered offense.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 22 of his 35 pass attempts for 294 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. He also rushed for 22 yards and took a sack. Maye wasn't able to rack up high-end fantasy scoring, but his significant yardage total and strong final three quarters helped New England cruise to its ninth consecutive victory. The Patriots are the first team to 10 wins and have sole possession of first place in the entire NFL, largely thanks to Maye's spectacular season. Even though Sunday's outing didn't set the world on fire, his track record indicates that he should have no trouble bouncing back as a strong QB1 option against a subpar Giants defense in Week 13.
