Who Should I Start? Wan'Dale Robinson or Trey McBride

Saturday, November 1, 2:51 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is in line for a high-volume receiving day, poised to exploit a favorable Week 9 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers defense. Robinson, currently the WR23 with 10.08 fantasy points per game, is leading the Giants in targets (57) and operating with an 82.6% snap share, solidifying his role as the top receiving option following injuries. The 49ers defense, while strong against scoring (8th in points against), is the 21st-ranked fantasy defense versus wide receivers, allowing a generous 33.81 fantasy points per game. Notably, San Francisco struggles to generate pressure (31st in sacks), which benefits quarterback Jaxson Dart and gives Robinson more time to separate. This high-target floor and plus matchup make Robinson a strong WR2 play with significant upside in this home contest.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride continues to be a set-it-and-forget-it type of player as he enters Week 9 as the overall TE4. In his last game before their Week 8 bye, McBride posted a huge game with 10 catches for 74 yards and two touchdowns. Whether it's Kyler Murray (foot) or Jacoby Brissett under center, he remains the number-one pass-catching option. In Week 9, he takes on the Dallas Cowboys, who are ranked 12th against the position and have only allowed two touchdowns. This is also the only part of the defense that's ranked better than 30th, so there should be room for McBride to get open. Fantasy managers should continue to roll with McBride as long as he's on the field.
