Should I start Harold Fannin or Denzel Boston in Week 6?

Updated Oct 19, 7:51 PM ET.

Harold Fannin and Denzel Boston are too close to call on usage: 89 percent of the snaps and 19 percent of the targets against 92 percent of the snaps and 19 percent of the targets over their last 3 games. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.

Should I drop Harold Fannin for Denzel Boston?

Not on these numbers alone. Harold Fannin projects 101 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (10.1 a game over 10 games) and Denzel Boston 105 (10.5 a game over 10 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it.

Their 2025 seasons

He caught 72 of 107 targets for 731 yards and 6 touchdowns, with 10 red zone targets.

That came to 6.7 targets a game, a 67 percent catch rate and 10.2 yards a catch.

He was on the field for 76 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Denzel Boston is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Harold Fannin is a tight end and Denzel Boston a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 11, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.
