Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Tank Dell

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin posted his worst outing of the season last Thursday evening but should be poised to return to fantasy stardom in Week 12 facing the Dallas Cowboys. In Week 11, McLaurin brought in just one of his two targets for ten yards. Before this disappointing showing, McLaurin has averaged a stellar 17.8 PPR points per game with 84.0 yards and 4.9 receptions per game since Week 3. During this stretch, the Ohio State product saw an impressive 6.8 targets per game. Operating as the clear top wideout in the DMV, McLaurin should be in a great position to return to his high-end WR2 status, facing a Dallas secondary that has allowed the 16th-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.

The Tennessee Titans present a difficult matchup for Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell in their first meeting of the season in Week 12. The Titans' brutal offense has dragged down the team's record, but their defense ranks an impressive second overall against fantasy wide receivers through 11 weeks. That presents a complicated decision for fantasy managers who roster the second-year Texan, who is once again playing second fiddle to teammate Nico Collins and dependent on a shaky Houston offensive line that has struggled to limit sacks at times. Dell is averaging 8.3 targets over his past three games, but the risk involved with the Week 12 matchup relegates him to a WR3/Flex play.
