Who Should I Start? Roman Wilson or Chimere Dike

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson did not see the field much in the season opener and will hope for more involvement in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson logged just 10 of a possible 56 offensive snaps in Week 1, well behind starting wideouts DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III. With Wilson competing alongside Ben Skowronek and Scotty Miller for the WR3 role, and Pittsburgh showing a willingness to utilize multiple tight ends, his path to meaningful opportunities remains narrow. As a second-year player who struggled to stay healthy as a rookie, Wilson may emerge at some point, but he should only be viewed as a stash in dynasty formats and cannot be considered in redraft lineups this week.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike has been performing well and could see more opportunities. On Friday, head coach Brian Callahan said that he has liked what Dike has done and that he's earned more opportunities as a receiver. In the season opener, Dike had a limited role on the offensive side of the ball and was deployed primarily as a special teams player. In the few offensive snaps he saw, Dike saw one target but was unable to connect with it. He also took one carry for nine yards. As a returner, Dike totaled 144 yards on kickoffs and 12 on punts. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the former fourth-round pick's development as he could carve out a role in the Tennessee offense that lacks proven playmakers behind veteran Calvin Ridley. For now, he is best left as a stash option in dynasty/keeper formats. If Dike were to begin to emerge as a regular starter in Week 2, he could enter waiver wire territory in deep redraft leagues.
