Who Should I Start? Marquise Brown or Romeo Doubs

Wednesday, December 24, 4:30 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will face the Denver Broncos on Christmas Day in Week 17. Brown caught three passes for 22 yards on three targets in last week's loss to the Tennessee Titans. With Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton placed on IR, Brown's role in the passing attack should increase. The veteran receiver should be more involved, but with Chris Oladokun operating as the Chiefs QB1, Brown's upside could be severely capped. Brown will also have to deal with a Denver Broncos defense that has allowed the seventh-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is ranked WR79 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a difficult player to start in any league regardless of depth or format.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs caught eight of his 11 targets for 124 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's Wild Card loss against the Chicago Bears. Doubs was relatively inconsistent this season, but he feasted during his final two games against the Bears, totaling 13 catches, 208 yards, and two touchdowns during that span. The 25-year-old was one of several receivers who benefited from Jordan Love's busy passing game on Saturday. He and three other wide receivers all scored touchdowns, but he paced the team in targets, catches, and yards. Doubs is an impending free agent, and it seems likely that he'll test the market with an opportunity to escape from Green Bay's very crowded wide receiver room.
