Who Should I Start? Romeo Doubs or Ladd McConkey

Sunday, October 20, 5:32 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs was excellent in his second-consecutive game for the Packers as the team edged the Houston Texans 24-22 in Week 7. Doubs led the Packers with 10 targets, eight receptions, and 94 receiving yards as he was a key component of Jordan Love's passing attack. While Dontayvion Wicks, Tucker Kraft, and Josh Jacobs scored the touchdowns through the air for the Packers, Doubs was very efficient and was the only consistent target-earning for quarterback Jordan Love and the Packers on the afternoon. With so many quality pass-catchers for Love in this excellent Packers' passing attack, Doubs has an emphasis for the Packers following a one-game suspension a couple of weeks ago. With this emphasis on Doubs being a focal point of the offense, consider Doubs a low-end WR3 for the Packers' Week 8 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey made five catches in a Week 7 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. McConkey ended up with seven targets and five catches, both good for second-most on the team behind tight end Will Dissly. He gained 46 yards, which was third highest. McConkey had a slow first half before turning it on a bit in the second half and ending up with a decent enough fantasy performance. With the Chargers throwing the ball more often, McConkey could have his fantasy arrow pointing up when the Bolts face the New Orleans Saints in Week 8.
