Who Should I Start? Zay Flowers or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers gets his starting quarterback back on the field for the Thursday night contest with the Miami Dolphins. While he posted a low-level WR2 performance in Week 8, his best games came during Weeks 1, 2, and 4. One of the reasons why Flowers isn't projected as a WR1 is that the Dolphins are the number-one ranked unit against opposing receivers in fantasy football this year. They allow 25.84 points to opposing receiver groups on average, and when Jackson is on the field, he tends to spread the ball around to his pass-catchers a lot more than any of their backups. So, even with the firepower returning to the offense, Flowers projects to be around WR16 this week.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. recorded a career-high seven receptions for 96 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in Monday night's 27-17 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Harrison took advantage of a great matchup and broke out for his best fantasy performance of the season in Week 9. It was his second-highest yardage total of the season, trailing his 98-yard performance in Week 5. The Arizona offense has been more functional with quarterback Jacoby Brissett while he's filled in for an injured Kyler Murray (foot), and Harrison looks like he could be ascending with Brissett at the helm. The 23-year-old earned 10 targets in a game for the second time this season, but will face a stiffer test in Week 10 as the Cardinals go on the road to face a strong Seattle Seahawks defense.
