Who Should I Start? Wan'Dale Robinson or Omarion Hampton

Saturday, September 27, 1:28 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson has been a consistent fantasy asset this season and enters Week 4 as a flex option, even with a rookie quarterback making his first start. He faces a Los Angeles Chargers defense that has been surprisingly tough on wide receivers, allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points to the position (28.4 FPPG) despite giving up a lot of yards. However, Robinson's role as a high-volume target (22 targets on a 69.8% snap share) makes him a likely safety blanket for rookie Jaxson Dart, especially against a defense that surrenders the second-most passing yards per game (270). As the 18th-ranked fantasy WR in points per game (11.93), Robinson's established role provides a stable floor in a potentially high-volume game.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Omarion Hampton impressed in the team's first loss of the season to the New York Giants, 21-18. He rushed 12 times for 128 yards and a touchdown, and caught all five of his targets for 37 yards. His 54-yard touchdown showcased his strength and speed, as he continues to be one of the league leaders in forced missed tackles this season. With Najee Harris (Achilles) out for the year, Hampton played over 90% of the snaps and led in the two-minute offense, solidifying his role as a bell-cow running back. In Week 5, he faces a Washington Commanders' defense that is decent against the run but just allowed Atlanta Falcons' running back Bijan Robinson to dominate them through the air. He's heading toward RB1 status, with top-five weekly potential if he maintains this pace.
