Who Should I Start? Tyler Lockett or Jerry Jeudy

Tuesday, December 2, 11:00 PM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tyler Lockett quickly established himself in the Raiders' offense after the team traded away Jakobi Meyers at the deadline, with his familiarity and chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith from their days in Seattle playing a big part in that. Lockett had only 10 catches on 21 targets for 70 yards in seven games with the Titans to begin the year, but in five games with Vegas, he has 13 catches on 16 targets for 150 yards. Most of that damage came in Weeks 10-12 (12 catches, 139 yards). He regressed in the Week 13 loss to the Chargers, catching one of three targets for 11 yards. It's no secret that Smith likes to look for Lockett, but the Raiders' offensive line is giving Smith very little time to throw the football, and the Raiders are averaging only 184.1 passing yards per game (seventh-fewest in the NFL). Lockett will have a low ceiling again as a WR5/flex in deeper fantasy leagues against Denver's stingy defense in Week 14. However, Lockett did have a season-high five catches for 44 yards in the first meeting with the Broncos on Nov. 6.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught three of his four targets for 26 yards in a 26-8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. Jeudy had a chance for a bigger game as he got open behind the San Francisco defense in the first quarter but was overthrown by Shedeur Sanders. The veteran wideout is turning in a disappointing season, catching just 35 passes for 421 yards and one touchdown across 12 games. Hard to trust in fantasy leagues going forward, Jeudy will look to get on track in Week 14's home matchup against the Tennessee Titans.
