Who Should I Start? Tyler Lockett or Terry McLaurin

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett only earned three targets in Seattle's Week 13 win over the New York Jets. He was a chain mover for the Seahawks, but he is no longer integral to the game plan. Lockett plays a specific role as a savvy veteran who can make big catches for this team. However, his days as anything close to a WR2 are officially long gone. At this point, Lockett is not worth a roster spot in fantasy. No one should roster a player who only earns three targets a game and does not score touchdowns. The Seahawks have shifted hard to consolidating targets between wide receivers DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The shift is producing results as both players are having solid seasons. Lockett has been a big name in fantasy for a long time, but it is time to let name value go and move on.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin brought in all eight of his targets for 73 yards and two touchdowns in their victory over the Tennessee Titans. Both his targets and yardage paced all other Washington wideouts on Sunday afternoon. These eight targets were also his highest total since Week 8 against the Chicago Bears. Both of McLaurin's scores came from within 20 yards. Since Week 3, McLaurin has only fallen below 15.0 PPR points on one occasion and has tallied an impressive nine touchdowns in this span. Fantasy managers should continue to view McLaurin as a high-end WR2 heading into a Week 15 duel in New Orleans following their Week 14 bye.
