Who Should I Start? Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or Marvin Mims Jr.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has seen his snap share spike the last two weeks since the Tyreek Hill (knee) injury, but he has turned in no fantasy production as a result. As the Dolphins face the Browns this week, NWI will look to get involved in the offense after totaling just one catch over the last four weeks. Westbrook-Ikhine has become the team's third receiver over the last two weeks, playing 71% of snaps against the Panthers and 63% of the snaps against the Chargers. However, he has just one target and no catches despite being on the field for 76 plays. He has the potential to contribute since he's getting playing time, but the fact that Tua Tagovailoa doesn't throw the ball his way keeps him well off the fantasy radar this week in Cleveland, where he is the WR86 in RotoBaller's Week 7 rankings.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. has served mostly behind Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin this season as the third receiver. Mims had his best game of the season in Week 4 against the Bengals, catching all six targets for 69 yards and rushing for a 16-yard touchdown. But he was unable to follow it up in Week 5 against Philadelphia, catching just two of five targets for 10 yards. The full-time role hasn't been there for Mims as head coach Sean Payton has rotated a lot of players at wide receiver. That leaves Mims as a tough player to trust in lineups for Week 6, where Denver will travel to London to face the Jets.
