Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans didn't have a great season opener, but was still able to contribute in the win. Evans hauled in five of his eight targets for 51 yards in the victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The veteran wideout finished with the team-high in receptions and targets. However, Evans saw his fantasy value take a dip with Emeka Egubka and Bucky Irving catching the three touchdowns. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried as Evans is one of the most consistent wideouts in the league. He should get the benefit of the doubt and remain on the WR1 radar for the upcoming matchup against the Houston Texans.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba will look to follow up his stellar Week 1 performance in Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. JSN displayed early chemistry with new quarterback Sam Darnold in the team's home opener. His nine receptions for 124 yards both led the team by a long shot. Smith-Njigba looked the part as well, constantly getting open and putting himself in position to succeed. The Steelers just got torched by New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson in Week 1. Wilson proved that the Steelers' defense may not be as scary as many thought it would be, at least not to start the season. Regardless, Smith-Njigba seems to be a perfect fit in the new Seahawks offensive scheme, which should make him matchup-proof. He was the WR12 in Week 1, and he has a great opportunity to finish as a WR1 once again this week.
