Who Should I Start? Romeo Doubs or Jaxson Dart

Tuesday, October 7, 3:35 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs is coming off by far his best game of the season in Week 4, with an awesome three-touchdown performance against the Dallas Cowboys. Is that performance something we can bank on in future weeks? Besides the three touchdowns in Week 4, Doubs earned eight targets and caught six balls for 58 yards. Entering the team's Week 5 bye, Doubs is tied with tight end Tucker Kraft with 19 targets and is second to Kraft in receptions and yards on the Packers this season. Despite that, Doubs averages less than five targets, just over three receptions, and 45 yards in per-game statistics. Simply put, that's not good enough to put into your fantasy lineups in most weeks, even with bye weeks here. Against the Bengals in Week 6, Doubs is merely a dart-throw flex option for fantasy managers, as the Packers' target distribution is so spread out that any number of Packers could be in line to lead their receiving production in a given week.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart completed 17 of his 25 pass attempts for 195 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions during Thursday's upset victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 6. He also contributed on the ground, rushing the ball 13 times for an additional 58 yards and one touchdown. The rookie first-round pick played turnover-free football and took just two sacks for a loss of one yard total. While Dart's passing yardage was modest, he made an impact by limiting turnovers and using his legs to make plays. If he can find this level of success against a strong defense like the Eagles, his potential in the league is limitless. He's a QB2 with QB1 upside heading into another tricky matchup against the Denver Broncos.
