Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or Keon Coleman

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is facing a two-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances, according to sources. It's more bad news for Williams' fantasy managers after he caught his only target for negative-four yards in the big divisional win in Week 7 over the Minnesota Vikings. It was the second time in six games this year Williams recorded just one catch in a game, but he also has three receiving touchdowns and has gone over 76 receiving yards four times as a boom/bust deep threat for Detroit. The 23-year-old speedy pass-catcher will obviously be off the board the next two weeks for fantasy managers, while second-year tight end Sam LaPorta could finally break out of his slump as a field-stretcher. With Williams out the next two weeks, Tim Patrick and Kalif Raymond should be more involved alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman caught four of his seven targets for 125 yards in the team's 34-10 win over the Tennessee Titans. The rookie more than doubled his previous career-high mark for receiving yards. Most of his yardage came on two plays: a 44-yard catch-and-run in the second quarter and a 57-yard gain in the fourth. He nearly scored a touchdown on another play but was it overturned to incomplete after a review. The presence of Amari Cooper may have eased the defensive attention on Coleman, but the veteran will eventually eat into his snaps as well. The rookie will be a boom-or-bust wide receiver for fantasy football managers again in Week 8.
