Who Should I Start? Tre' Harris or Isaiah Bond

Thursday, October 23, 12:05 AM

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris saw his production decline to two catches for 23 yards on two targets last Sunday, overshadowed by the breakout of fellow rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden. Harris remains buried on the depth chart, and facing a quick turnaround against a blitz-heavy Minnesota Vikings secondary offers no clear path to fantasy relevance. While coaches may like him, the offense currently has too many established targets, and now with Gadsden's emergence, Harris's participation may be even more limited. Harris should stay on the bench and will only be a desperation, boom-or-bust WR5/6 if a major injury occurs to the team's top three wideouts.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond was not targeted in a 31-6 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. The rookie wideout had been trending up before that quiet outing, although he is not entirely at fault, as the Browns only passed the ball 18 times on a rainy, windy afternoon in Cleveland. Bond will now head on the road to face off against the New England Patriots in Week 8. The Patriots have been generous to opposing wideouts this season, allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Bond is a risky play thanks to a below-average Cleveland passing offense, but he's on the radar as a boom/bust WR5 in fantasy in Week 8.
