Who Should I Start? Romeo Doubs or Marvin Mims Jr.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs scored on his only look from quarterback Malik Willis in the Packers' 20-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks in their final preseason game. The Packers' wide receiver room has been decimated by injuries during the preseason, but it was a bit of an eye-opener to see Doubs, who has run the most routes for the Packers over the last two seasons, play the first two series of the game. Doubs scored on a one-yard snag from starting quarterback Malik Willis, and Doubs' day was over after that. The Packers can now rest up for their Week 1 home opener against the Detroit Lions. For fantasy purposes, Doubs is more of a late-round fantasy wide receiver with capped production upside, but he should be on the field quite a bit.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (thigh) was listed as a full participant in the team's first official injury report on Wednesday ahead of their Week 1 contest on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Aric DiLalla of DenverBroncos.com. Mims left practice early last Thursday but was able to return to the field on Monday. Barring a setback, the 23-year-old should be just fine for the season opener in Denver this weekend. The former second-rounder became a much bigger part of the Broncos' offense in the second half of last year and finished with 39 receptions on 52 targets for 503 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (two starts). Mims is lined up to open the year as the WR2 behind Courtland Sutton, but tight end Evan Engram, rookie receiver Pat Bryant and Troy Franklin will all be vying for targets. Mims is a boom/bust WR5/flex in deeper fantasy leagues.
