Start 1: CeeDee Lamb or Preston Williams (1 Viewer)

With Evans and Sutton likely injured or on limited snaps at best, I need to go to the bottom of the bench for another starting WR. 0.5 PPR, leaning towards CeeDee because of the camp hype

Do you think you should win or do you need a high upside guy to hit?  Williams is the safe play if you just need points and Lamb is the upside play if you need a huge day.

Well said - range of outcomes for Williams is smaller/safer - say should be 8-10 points (making this up for illustrative purposes), while Lamb is a range more like 4-15 with either extreme equally as likely.

Week 1 I usually tend to the more sure thing and would lean Williams in most cases, but if I feel like I am a bit of an underdog and really need to hit a homerun, I'd go with Lamb. For purposes of the poll, I selected Williams.

CeeDee but I'm sky high on him

Williams will draw the weaker of the CBs for NE.  I'd roll with him.

Lots of options in Dallas. I’d roll with Williams until further evidence Lamb will produce.

True, but that’s  still a pretty good CB.

McCourty allowed just 5.31 yards per target in his coverage last year and didn’t allow a single touchdown on 49 targets. In addition, there were just four wide receivers all of last year that finished as a top-24 option against the Patriots. Three of them were slot receivers.

Lamb has the upside but i'd go Williams first game.
