Who Should I Start? Tyler Lockett or Christian Kirk

After bringing in eight catches and finding the end zone twice in Week 2, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett had a dud of a game in Week 3. The 31-year-old caught just three of his seven targets for 34 yards in Seattle's win over the Carolina Panthers. Perhaps the final line was the result of adjustments made to the game plan at halftime, as all but three of Geno Smith's pass attempts in the second half went to tight ends or running backs. While it didn't count as an official reception, Lockett fought off safety Jeremy Chinn to catch the pass that sealed Seattle's two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. Even after a down week, Lockett is worthy of WR3/FLEX consideration for Seattle's Week 4 game against the New York Giants.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk takes on the Houston Texans in a divisional Week 3 matchup. After logging one catch in Week 1, Kirk came back to lead the Jaguars in targets (14) against the Chiefs, hauling in 11 passes for 110 yards. However, Kirk still remains a shaky play, especially against the surprisingly decent pass defense of Houston. Predicting the Jags receivers' boom games might be one of the more difficult things to do in fantasy this year. Calvin Ridley remains a must-start, but Kirk fits into the boom-or-bust WR3 category, especially against a team that held him to three receptions for 32 yards over two games last season.
