Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Wan'Dale Robinson

Friday, November 7, 6:09 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen had another quiet week, recording season lows with just five targets and two catches for 41 yards. The main concern is his snap share, which has dropped to 25% and 37.5% over the past two weeks as rookie pass-catchers like Tre' Harris and Oronde Gadsden take on bigger roles. Despite facing a favorable matchup against a surging but still vulnerable Pittsburgh Steelers pass defense, Allen's reduced usage limits the upside fantasy managers have come to expect. He does have a good individual matchup against Steelers cornerback Darius Slay, who is allowing 1.3 yards per route run, showing he can still move the chains when targeted. However, due to his declining volume, Allen is best viewed as a low-end WR3 or FLEX option this week, projected as WR35.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson has emerged as the clear focal point of the passing attack and projects as a strong fantasy start in the Week 10 road game versus the Chicago Bears. Robinson is enjoying the best season of his career, currently ranking as the 21st fantasy WR while commanding a high volume, as evidenced by his team-leading 11 targets in Week 9. His high usage, coupled with a solid 9.97 fantasy points per game, sets him up for success against the Chicago defense, which ranks 30th against fantasy WRs, surrendering a generous 38.63 points per contest. The Bears' propensity to allow points (28.4 per game, 29th in NFL) and passing touchdowns (20 allowed) makes Robinson a high-floor, high-ceiling option this week.
