Who Should I Start? Olamide Zaccheaus or Elic Ayomanor

Chicago Bears wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus was held in check by the New York Giants in Week 10, recording one catch for five yards on four targets. Still, the 28-year-old continues to play a consistent role in Chicago's offense. Zaccheaus has played at least 57% of the Bears' offensive snaps in six out of the team's last seven games. For the season, he's recorded 32 catches for 248 yards and a touchdown on 50 targets. Between wide receivers Rome Odunze, DJ Moore, and Luther Burden III, there's plenty of target competition for Zaccheaus in Chicago. Still, Zaccheaus has recorded at least six targets in four out of his last six games played. In deep fantasy leagues, he could be worth adding off the waiver wire.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has had a decent rookie season through 10 games, and with Calvin Ridley (leg) suffering a season-ending injury in Week 11 against the Texans, he could be in line for more opportunities. Fellow rookie wideout Chimere Dike also suffered a concussion in the game, leaving Ayomanor and veteran Van Jefferson as the two top wide receivers for Tennessee. Ayomanor has earned a consistent number of targets in every game this season, but the inconsistencies of fellow rookie Cameron Ward, along with his own poor play, have resulted in underwhelming production. The touchdown upside is not high for any player in this offense at the moment, but the rookie fourth-rounder has a good chance to lead the Titans in targets in Week 12 against the Seahawks. Ayomanor is worth adding off the waiver wire if available, but would be a risky play against a stout Seattle defense.
