Who Should I Start? Romeo Doubs or Alec Pierce

Friday, October 24, 4:54 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has quietly been one of the most reliable receivers on this Packers team this season and looks to keep that momentum rolling in the Packers' Week 8 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Doubs has had three straight games of eight or more targets, with at least five receptions and 55 yards in each of those games. With Doubs featured as the go-to wide receiver for Jordan Love, he's been meaningfully relied on to provide consistent production along with tight end Tucker Kraft. With the Packers facing the Steelers on Sunday night, and Pittsburgh allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season, consider Doubs a solid WR3 option in Week 8.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce continued to flash his big-play ability in a 38-14 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 8. Pierce caught two of his five targets for 69 yards in the blowout win, finishing second on the Colts in receiving yards behind only Michael Pittman Jr. The veteran wideout has been an explosive pass-catcher this season, catching 18 passes for 386 scoreless yards in six games, good for an impressive 21.4 yards-per-catch average, which leads the league. The only thing missing from a fantasy perspective is Pierce's lack of touchdowns, an issue that he will hope to remedy on the road against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. Pierce will be a high-end WR4 for that matchup.
