Who Should I Start? Tyrell Shavers or LaJohntay Wester

Saturday, December 27, 10:39 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Tyrell Shavers hauled in one of two targets for 21 yards in Week 16's victory over the Cleveland Browns. Despite the Bills being without Gabe Davis and Keon Coleman, both healthy inactives in Week 16, Shavers failed to capitalize on his opportunities, as the Bills totaled fewer than 100 passing yards. The second-year receiver will hope for a bounce-back in Week 17 against the Philadelphia Eagles, who have allowed the eighth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. However, there is still a window for Shavers this week. Khalil Shakir is likely to see a lot of slot corner Cooper DeJean, and Joshua Palmer is expected to be shadowed by star cornerback Quinyon Mitchell. Quarterback Josh Allen has been electric at home this season, and both tight ends, Dawson Knox (knee) and Dalton Kincaid (knee), are questionable entering this week. While he's too risky to start in fantasy championships this week, Shavers could be a cheap DFS option against the Eagles.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver LaJohntay Wester put together a fantastic debut in the team's first preseason game after being drafted in the sixth round out of Colorado. The speedster scored his first touchdown near the end of the first quarter when he returned a punt to the house for 87 yards. He flashed his elusiveness after making the first four tacklers miss, and turned on the burners. Overall, he finished with 104 return yards on three attempts and two receptions for 41 yards on three targets. If Wester continues this level of play, he could find his way into the fourth receiver spot over Devontez Walker and Tylan Wallace.
