Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Zach Charbonnet

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.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet did not deliver for fantasy managers in Week 18. He ran for 59 yards and gained 32 yards on a lateral from wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Charbonnet was in a great position to succeed as the starter. However, Seattle rotated running back Kenny McIntosh into the lineup consistently. As such, Charbonnet did not have the same volume he has enjoyed in his other starts this season. Charbonnet's future in fantasy is interesting. The Seahawks seem very committed to starting running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle). However, Charbonnet has shown this season that he can carry the load when called upon and Walker has proven himself to be injury prone throughout his career. At the very least, Charbonnet has proven himself to be an excellent complimentary piece to Walker. Charbonnet should have a chance to be a consistent contributor next year. His eight rushing touchdowns were excellent this year. Time will tell what Seattle decides to do with their offense.
