Who Should I Start? Romeo Doubs or Tyler Warren

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.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren has been one of the top rookies in the league this season. He stayed hot in a 40-6 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5, catching all four of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the blowout win. Warren has now scored touchdowns in two straight games as he continues to operate as one of the top options in the Indy passing attack. The rookie will now turn his attention to a Week 6 home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have been a decent matchup for tight ends this season, allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game to the position through five games. Warren sets up as a no-brainer TE1 in all fantasy leagues in Week 6.
