Should You Start or Sit Tyreek Hill in Week 7?
Hill was WR4 in Week 1 and things were going great, but that feels like a distant memory at this point. He hasn’t been a top-30 receiver in a single game since, a run that includes three finishes outside of the top 50.
My hope is that the bye week helps Mike McDaniel adjust. Everything we’ve seen since the Tua Tagovailoa injury points to Hill’s profile holding more risk than reward, but I’ll stick it out for one more week against a Colts defense that has allowed offenses to be consistently elite. The big plays may be hard to come by, but a 6-8 catch day, even if they come on conservative routes, should allow Hill to finish as a low-end WR2 in this spot.
In fact, I’ll take it one step further — could Hill be for sale from a team that is 2-4 and looking for a quick fix? I’d test the waters.
By offering a deal for Hill now, you take on potentially another few rough weeks, but you have the bye behind you and you open yourself up for three straight warm weather games (two home and one indoors) in Weeks 14-16. The juice could well be worth the squeeze if the manager currently holding Hill is reaching desperation mode.
