Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Saturday, November 15, 8:24 AM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy turned in his best performance of the season in a Week 10 loss to the New York Jets. Jeudy caught six of 12 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in the loss, establishing season-highs across the board for the Browns. He will look to keep it going in a Week 11 home matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens have struggled against opposing wide receivers this season, allowing the fifth-most fantasy points per game to the position. While Jeudy has the momentum and the matchup in his favor, the Cleveland passing attack under Dillon Gabriel has not been very efficient this season, so fantasy managers will want to temper expectations for Jeudy this week. He settles in as a low-end flex for Week 11.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba should be fine against a mid-tier Rams passing defense on Sunday. The Rams are No. 17 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. While the Rams' defense has been solid against the run, they have allowed opposing wide receivers to get loose. Some of that is due to garbage time with the Rams often dominating games, but the Seahawks boast a quality offense that should have success in Week 11. JSN has an incredible floor. He has scored less than 18.3 PPR fantasy points just once this season. He only needed 42% of the snaps in a blowout against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10 to eclipse 20 fantasy points. The way the Seahawks use Smith-Njigba allows him to get loose often. He is the perfect blend of slot and outside wide receiver. This game will be a pivotal matchup between these two teams. It could end up being relatively low-scoring. However, JSN's volume alone will propel him to another WR1 outing. Start him with confidence.
