Start: Emmanuel Sanders, Denver Broncos

vs. Oakland Raiders

Case Keenum’s debut with the Denver Broncos had its hiccups, but it was a good sign for those who have Emmanuel Sanders on their fantasy roster. Keenum targeted Sanders a team high 11 times.

Sanders is coming off a strong preseason and is looking to reestablish himself as a top-flight receiver.

This week’s matchup against the Raiders should provide him another opportunity to showcase his skills. The Raiders don’t have much to work with in the secondary which is where the Broncos will likely attack.

Sit: Corey Davis, Tennessee Titans

vs. Houston Texans

Davis was targeted 13 times in the Titans opening week matchup against the Miami Dolphins. However, those targets only resulted in six catches and 62 yards. That’s some poor efficiency from the second year wide receiver.

Tennessee’s issues appear to go much deeper than Davis. This is a team that looked out of sync from the start of their game against the Dolphins.

A lot of their problems continue to surround the inconsistency of quarterback Marcus Mariota. His status for this week’s game is up in the air due to an injury and Blaine Gabbert doesn’t inspire much hope.

I’m keeping Davis on the bench until this offense starts to show more signs of life.
