Troy Boy asked in SportsFantasy Sports · 6 years ago

Should I start Alshon Jeffery (CHI) vs. a stout DET defense, or John Brown (AZ) vs. a weaker Atlanta DST? Please provide reasoning?

Update:

Thank you both. I can't award a best answer, since you were both right; however, I appreciate your answers. They helped me win this week.

    I would start Jeffery. The reason is, Jeffery gets targeted about 3 times as much as John Brown during the course of an average game. I don't have the stats here in front of me and I can't look it up right now (although I encourage you to do so). I would make an educated guess, though, that Jeffery gets targeted about 12 times per game, and Brown gets targeted about 4-5 times per game.

    Play Jeffery - he's getting more targets and outscoring Brown. It is a tougher match up, but not so big a difference that it's worth playing Brown.
