Who Should I Start? Zay Flowers or Tetairoa McMillan

Saturday, November 22, 11:17 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been one of the most consistent 10-to-12 fantasy point finishers in the NFL this year. That could be either good or bad depending on roster makeups and depth of league, but he's registered six finishes in that range for half-PPR formats. While the New York Jets are only 2-8 this season, they aren't the easiest matchup against opposing receiver groups. They're ranked 13th on the season, but they dipped to 23rd in the last four weeks and have given up a total of 37 receptions for 429 yards and two touchdowns. Flowers should see the same volume that he's received this season, but he's on a nine-game scoreless streak at the moment. That leaves him as a mid-level WR2 projection yet again.

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan caught just two of seven targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 20-9 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. McMillan and quarterback Bryce Young struggled to connect in this game, with the two often on the wrong page or Young delivering an inaccurate ball. The rookie wideout isn't without blame, however, as he had a bad drop on a third down in the first half. McMillan was at least able to connect with Young on a beautiful 29-yard touchdown late in the third quarter to at least salvage a decent fantasy day for managers. It was still a disappointing result for the Panthers' passing attack after a great performance last week against the Atlanta Falcons, when McMillan went for 130 yards and two touchdowns. McMillan still projects favorably as the Panthers' clear No. 1 target for their Week 13 matchup against the NFC-leading Los Angeles Rams.
