Who Should I Start? Trey McBride or Rome Odunze

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride still sits atop the mountain at the position as the number-one option in the team's offense. He's still Kyler Murray's (foot) favorite target, and even if Jacoby Brissett gets the start, McBride plays a great security blanket role. The Indianapolis Colts are ranked as the tenth-toughest defense against the position, allowing 11.66 fantasy points per game, but McBride has been matchup-proof for the past couple of seasons. It goes without saying that McBride is a set-it-and-forget-it type of play.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has emerged as a breakout star through four games, totaling 296 yards and five touchdowns. Odunze has clearly claimed the WR1 role in Chicago, evidenced by his 90.7% snap share and 94.3% route participation rate, while continuing to build a strong connection with quarterback Caleb Williams. The Week 6 matchup is favorable, as the Commanders have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Odunze's strength against man coverage is another plus, especially since Washington runs man defense the 10th most in the league. The second-year receiver enters the week as a low-end WR1, with another opportunity to extend his breakout campaign.
