Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or James Cook

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught seven of his ten targets for 89 yards and a touchdown during their victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His ten targets and seven catches were the most on the team. His 89 yards tied him for the most alongside Dyami Brown. McLaurin was Jayden Daniels' go-to option all evening. McLaurin found the back of the end zone in the fourth quarter on a five-yard strike from Daniels. The 29-year-old wideout has now scored in back-to-back games and eight times over the past seven games. During this seven-game stretch, McLaurin has tallied at least 60 yards in all but one game. He should be viewed as a high-end WR1 in DFS formats, facing a struggling Detroit secondary next weekend.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook carried the ball 23 times for 120 yards and a touchdown in the team's 31-7 victory over the Denver Broncos in the first round of the playoffs. The Bills attacked Denver's run defense early and often. Cook picked up 62 yards and his score on the team's first two drives. Cook's 23 carries were a season-high mark for rush attempts and touches. Unfortunately, he wasn't involved, or needed, in the passing game (zero targets). A matchup against one of the league's top run defenses (Baltimore) is next for Cook and the Buffalo Bills.
