Choosing a top-quality wide receiver like Brandon Aiyuk or Terry McLaurin can be pivotal to scoring big fantasy points. However, if your receivers aren't getting you the desired results, you shouldn't hesitate to drop them from your fantasy team.
Here, we analyze the best fantasy pick between the San Francisco 49ers' Brandon Aiyuk and Washington Commanders' Terry McLaurin. The two receivers have come under the microscope recently. However, Aiyuk looks to have found some rhythm in Week 6.
Brandon Aiyuk's stats and fantasy outlook
Niners receiver Brandon Aiyuk has added 320 yards on 25 receptions with three touchdowns this season. The 24-year-old is yet to record a 100-yard game this term. His best outing of the season came in Week 6 against the Atlanta Falcons, when Aiyuk recorded 83 yards and two touchdowns.
In total, Aiyuk has put up 50.7 fantasy points in six games so far, averaging 8.4 points per game. Although he is not among the top receivers in the league at the moment, there are indications that he could do more in the upcoming games.
Terry McLaurin's stats and fantasy outlook
Terry McLaurin has recorded 367 yards so far on 22 receptions with one touchdown to his name. The Commanders' receiver has not been at his best in the past few weeks either.
McLaurin scored his one and only touchdown of the season in Week 1 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He had another notable outing in Week 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles when he recorded 102 yards.
In total, he has 44.5 fantasy points this campaign, averaging 7.5 points per game. The 27-year-old hasn't looked like a pick who can get you big fantasy points for the rest of the season. McLaurin also doesn't seem to be getting much joy against opposing defenses and has one fumble.
If you need to drop either one of Aiyuk or McLaurin from your fantasy team, we suggest that you remove the latter. Here are a few more receivers that you can consider picking for the season:
- Tyreek Hill
- Davante Adams
- DeAndre Hopkins
