BALLER MOVE: Sit in 1QB Leagues, Start in 2QB or Superflex Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2
ANALYSIS: In this week's matchup, Geno Smith is a cautious start, especially given the Buffalo Bills' tough defense against quarterbacks.
Smith has had a solid season for the Seattle Seahawks, leading the NFL in passing yards and averaging nearly 40 pass attempts per game. That high volume should continue, as the Bills' stingy defense will likely force Seattle to lean heavily on the pass.

DK Metcalf's status is a big question mark, as the star receiver is nursing a knee injury and will probably not suit up. Without Metcalf, Smith could face added challenges, as he will need to rely on other receiving options to move the chains.
While he is a decent play in 2QB or Superflex leagues due to his passing volume, it is best to leave Smith on the bench in standard formats this week.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
