Who Should I Start? Michael Wilson or Dontayvion Wicks

Saturday, November 23, 9:28 PM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson should seldom be started this weekend when his team lines up against the Seattle Seahawks in a road tilt. The Stanford alum is a strong route-runner and currently leads his fellow wideouts in snaps. However, that is mainly due to teammate Marvin Harrison Jr. missing most of one game after sustaining a concussion. While Wilson has had a few viable fantasy performances this year, they've typically only taken place when he's gotten into the end zone. The Seahawks present as a middle-of-the-road matchup regarding their pass defense, so it's not exactly one to shy away from. Still, the 24-year-old is averaging just three receptions and 30.7 yards over his ten contests, so fantasy managers can likely find a better option to slot in his place. Wilson ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR53 for this weekend's slate of action.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks should be left on all benches in Week 12 when the Packers face the San Francisco 49ers. Wicks has not caught a pass in each of the past two games and has averaged just 2.0 targets during this span. Wicks has only surpassed double-digit PPR points on three occasions this season but fell below 7.0 PPR points in each of the other seven contests. Playing in a crowded Green Bay wide receiver room, Wicks has shown flashes of potential at times but has been unable to see a consistent dose of targets. As a result, fantasy managers in all formats should keep Wicks on their bench. However, managers in deeper formats should continue to stash Wicks on their roster as he could find a path to fantasy stardom if he can find his way toward the top of the depth chart down the stretch.
