Who Should I Start? Parker Washington or Arian Smith

Sunday, October 5, 6:53 AM

The Jacksonville Jaguars face the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football in what should be a difficult game. That could mean the offense struggles quite a bit, but it could also mean plenty of targets for a receiver like Parker Washington. Washington had a down week in Week 4 after 76 receiving yards in Week 2 and 11 targets in Week 3, making him a risky play. However, he has at least shown himself capable of producing in the inconsistent Jaguars offense, albeit with limited upside. Washington is fine to roster, but better left on the bench in Week 5 against the tough Chiefs' secondary.

New York Jets wide receiver Arian Smith does not project to be a factor this Sunday despite a solid matchup against the hosting Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The rookie wideout picked up a sizable increase in playing time from his first NFL action in Week 1, racking up nearly 50% of the team's snaps (47%) after a measly 10% the week prior. Fellow wideout Josh Reynold's (hamstring) absence from the game was the primary catalyst behind the occurrence, but that will be true again in Week 3. The former Georgia Bulldog is uber-explosive and offers a similar athletic profile to teammate Garrett Wilson. However, targets will be challenging to come by with Wilson lined up across the field in a Jets' offense that prefers to keep the ball on the ground. He lands as RotoBaller's PPR WR121 in Week 3.
