Who Should I Start? Ray-Ray McCloud III or Kyle Williams

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III will be a healthy scratch for the Week 7 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The 29-year-old will now miss his second straight game for personal reasons. It sounds like McCloud was sent home on Friday while he deals with a personal matter. It didn't sound like the coaching staff was sure when McCloud would rejoin the team. He has been a non-factor anyway with six receptions for 64 yards in four games. Drake London and Kyle Pitts Sr. remain the top receiving options in Atlanta right now.

New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels recently said that rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams "continues to practice well" and is "doing a really good job of understanding his assignments," per ESPN's Mike Reiss. Williams has had a limited impact through the first six weeks of his career, recording two catches for 20 yards on four targets. However, it appears as though the team is happy with his progress and sees him as an important piece going forward. For now, Williams appears to be behind Stefon Diggs (chest), Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas, and Mack Hollins on the depth chart at wide receiver in New England. He should remain off of the radar of redraft fantasy managers for the time being, but Williams maintains appeal in dynasty leagues.
