Who Should I Start? Ray Davis or Tahj Brooks

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis hauled in two receptions, including a touchdown against the Falcons in Week 6. Despite his season-high production, Davis remains strictly a handcuff for James Cook, as he has seen less than three touches in every game outside of the team's Week 2 blowout of the Jets. Davis accounts for just 7% of the team's rushing attempts this season, and has been targeted just four times in the passing game. Expect to see a hard-fought matchup with a stingy Panthers defense that will likely keep the Bills starters on the field throughout the game, making Davis nothing more than a handcuff for Cook.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Tahj Brooks didn't log an offensive snap in the Week 1 win over the Browns. Most assumed the rookie would have at least a small role in the offense. However, that didn't happen in the AFC North clash with Cleveland, with Samaje Perine getting 13 snaps and Chase Brown leading the way with 39. Without question, Brown was expected to get most of the work out of the backfield for the Bengals this season. That likely won't change unless he goes down with an injury. Brooks should get some snaps moving forward, but he has a long way to go before earning a spot in redraft lineups, including for the Week 2 meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars. On the other hand, he's at least worth stashing on dynasty rosters.
