Who Should I Start? Trey McBride or Brock Bowers

Tuesday, October 22, 10:25 AM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride continues to be the top target in the team's passing offense in Monday's 17-15 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. McBride logged five catches for 51 yards on a team-leading seven targets on Monday night. He has become the team's most dependable target in crucial moments and clearly has the trust of quarterback Kyler Murray. While McBride is still looking to receive more red zone targets and gain more touchdown upside, his target share keeps him at the top of fantasy tight end rankings. The Cardinals travel to Miami next week to take on the Dolphins, and McBride should remain a lock for starting lineups in fantasy.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers continues to show he's their best offensive weapon. In his Week 7 game against the Los Angeles Rams, Bowers caught 10 passes on 14 targets for 93 yards. He's easily their best pass-catcher and chain-mover. He's also an absolute stud in PPR fantasy formats and currently ranks as the TE1 overall. His target volume could remain high even when lead receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) returns, and should be better than it was in the early season with Davante Adams was still a part of the team. Las Vegas will square off with the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8, but matchups should be ignored when deciding to start or sit Bowers. He must be started.
