Who Should I Start? Jaydon Blue or Emeka Egbuka

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Jaydon Blue impressed the coaching staff in training camp and the preseason, leading to him being a late-round dart throw in fantasy football drafts. Blue has been unable to carry over that momentum during the summer into his first NFL season, though, as he's been active for only four games in 2025. The 21-year-old fifth-round selection out of Texas didn't make his debut until Week 5, and he has been a healthy scratch in four consecutive games since he fumbled the ball away in the team's Week 8 loss to the Denver Broncos. It seemed as though Blue had a clear path to RB2 duties after Miles Sanders had season-ending knee surgery, but Malik Davis has ascended the depth chart behind starter Javonte Williams instead. In his four games this year, Blue has only 22 carries for 65 yards (3.0 yards per carry) and no touchdowns. Blue should only be stashed in keeper/dynasty leagues.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka hasn't found much success over the last few weeks. Egbuka has been held to 40 receiving yards or fewer in three of the last four games. The rookie wideout has shown great flashes, but has also posted a good amount of duds. It's also worth noting that quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is extremely banged up right now, so it's unclear how well he'll be in the passing game this weekend. Egbuka has tremendous upside, but has the floor of a WR3 for the upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
