Start: Tre’Quan Smith, New Orleans Saints

vs. Atlanta Falcons

This might be a little aggressive, but I’m moving Tre’Quan Smith into the No. 2 wide receiver category for this week’s matchup. The New Orleans Saints offense is playing at such a high level that it’s more than capable of supporting several fantasy studs.

Smith is showing that he’s more than just a big play threat. He has made major steps in his development throughout the season. This past weekend against the Philadelphia Eagles he was making plays all over the field.

Sit: Corey Davis, Tennessee Titans

@ Houston Texans

Marcus Mariota suffered yet another injury this past week against the Indianapolis Colts. His inability to stay healthy has stunted his growth and negatively impacted the fantasy value of the whole roster.

Arguably the biggest impact has been felt by the Corey Davis owners. Davis is basically a rookie receiver who is trying to adjust to the NFL game. He’s coming off a rookie season that was sapped by injuries and now is dealing with erratic quarterback play.

Davis is someone I wouldn’t want in my lineup this weekend when the Tennessee Titans travel to take on the Houston Texans. J.J. Watt and company will make life difficult for whoever is under center for the Titans.
