Who Should I Start? Marvin Mims Jr. or Ricky Pearsall

Friday, November 28, 9:48 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. has barely been used in the offensive gameplan over the last few weeks. Mims has seen one target over his last three games and hasn't hauled in a pass since Week 7. That being said, Mims isn't someone worth targeting ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders. The 23-year-old currently sits as the fourth wideout on this depth chart, which isn't offering fantasy value right now. He's young enough that he's worth stashing in dynasty leagues, but Mims appears to be a safe drop candidate in redraft formats ahead of Week 13.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has not had the second-year breakout that many were predicting back in training camp. Injuries have been a big issue yet again, as he didn't return from a PCL sprain in his knee until Week 11 after getting hurt in Week 4. In three games since his return, the 25-year-old former first-rounder has caught only five passes for 20 yards on nine targets. Overall, he's sporting a 25-347-0 line in seven games. It's not like he hasn't been on the field since his return, as he's played at least 75% of the snaps in all three games. Fantasy managers who have hung onto Pearsall will be hoping that the Niners will devise a plan to get him more involved when they come out of their Week 14 bye to face the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, Dec. 14. Better days could be ahead, but Pearsall is likely to continue to struggle for a high target share in an offense that has plenty of mouths to feed between Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, and Jauan Jennings.
