Who Should I Start? Ryan Flournoy or Pat Bryant

Tuesday, October 7, 10:17 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy had the best game of his career on Sunday against New York, and he could stay involved in his team's high-volume passing attack in the coming weeks. CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and KaVontae Turpin (ankle) were out in Week 5, and if they miss week as well, Flournoy could be busy once again as the Cowboys visit the Panthers in Week 6. In his career day against the Jets, the 25-year-old caught six of his nine targets for 114 yards and took two carries for 10 yards. He tied for the team lead in targets with Jake Ferguson and posted more receiving yards than any other player on the roster. Flournoy had just four catches this season prior to Sunday and only 10 catches for all of last year. The second-year receiver from Southeast Missouri State will be a deep-league option to keep an eye on, though, since the Cowboys have been throwing the ball so often this season.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant played the third-most snaps among the team's receivers in Week 5 against the Eagles, trailing only Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. The rotation at wide receiver for Denver has been inconsistent week to week, outside of Sutton and Franklin. But Bryant has earned more snaps on offense for doing the dirty work as a blocker. The rookie got a lot of recognition for his block in the Bengals game that sprung Marvin Mims for a touchdown. Bryant got up a season high 54% of the routes in Week 5, jumping significantly from his high of 32% in the previous week. For the season, he's only caught two of four targets for 18 yards. It's still a very crowded Denver passing attack, and Bryant would need a lot to happen to be fantasy relevant in redraft leagues.
