Who Should I Start? Laquon Treadwell or Dalton Schultz

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Laquon Treadwell caught all six of his targets for 116 yards and a touchdown in a 41-14 preseason win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday. Treadwell got the start and played throughout the first half, doing most of his damage on a 59-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. The former first-round pick of the Minnesota Vikings is looking to survive final cuts after not appearing in any regular-season games in 2024 but he would not have a significant role on the Colts' offense even if he makes the team.

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz has racked up 62 catches this season but only scored one touchdown, making him a deep-league PPR option but not a reliable, regular starter in standard-sized leagues. Schultz had three catches on four targets for 22 yards last week against the Chiefs, and he has at least three catches in all but two of his games this season. His only touchdown came against the Jaguars from Davis Mills, but C.J. Stroud looks his way often on short-yardage targets as well. His consistent volume gives him a high floor, but his ceiling is limited since he hasn't scored as many touchdowns. Schultz is the No. 17 TE this week in RotoBaller's rankings, as he faces the Cardinals, who have allowed six touchdowns and an average of 61 yards per game to tight ends this season. Even with a boost from the matchup, Schultz is better used as a TE2 than a starter in standard-sized leagues this week.
