Who Should I Start? George Pickens or Rome Odunze

Saturday, November 1, 4:46 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens has continued to establish himself as one of fantasy football's top options. Coming off another strong Week 8 performance, Pickens hauled in seven catches on nine targets for 78 yards, maintaining a high level of involvement in the offense. In Week 9, Pickens and the Cowboys face the Arizona Cardinals, a defense that has struggled against the pass this season and ranks inside the top 10 for passing yards allowed. This favorable matchup sets the stage for Pickens to continue his strong start to the season. RotoBaller currently ranks Pickens as the WR10 for Week 9.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze (ankle/heel) practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday, per The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain. Odunze followed a similar practice pattern last week and was able to play in Week 9, so he appears to be trending toward playing in Week 10 against the New York Giants. The 23-year-old is coming off his worst game of the season against the Cincinnati Bengals, as he was held without a reception on three targets. Odunze has been much better for the season overall, recording 31 catches for 473 yards and five touchdowns on 59 targets across eight games. Assuming he's cleared to play, Odunze profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 10 against the Giants.
