Who Should I Start? Joshua Palmer or Jalen Tolbert

Saturday, December 27, 10:54 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer struggled in Week 16, catching his only target for two yards in the Bills' victory over the Cleveland Browns. Despite both Gabe Davis and Keon Coleman being healthy inactive last week, Palmer failed to capitalize on his opportunities. Palmer has dealt with injuries in his first season in Buffalo, suffering a high-ankle sprain that cost him four weeks earlier in the season. The Bills face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 17, who have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Star cornerback Quinyon Mitchell is likely to shadow the top receiver in Buffalo, and that assignment could be Palmer. With him already struggling entering this brutal matchup, Palmer is in a tough spot this week.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert (coach's decision) and running back Jaydon Blue (coach's decision) are both healthy scratches for Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Tolbert is now headed for his third consecutive absence, and he hasn't logged a catch since Week 8. Ryan Flournoy, KaVontae Turpin, and Jonathan Mingo have offered more value in their depth roles behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, leading to Tolbert being inactive. He can be dropped in all fantasy leagues. Meanwhile, Blue remains the odd man out from the Cowboys' backfield and is inactive for the seventh game in a row. Dallas' backfield will continue to feature just two running backs -- Javonte Williams and Malik Davis -- as well as fullback Hunter Luepke. Blue can be dropped in redraft leagues, but he remains an intriguing dynasty stash.
