The fantasy football playoffs are finally here, for most fantasy football leagues, at least. There isn't much room for error at this point. Starting the wrong players can end your season in close matchups, and it's more crucial than ever to maximize how many points your team scores.
There's no perfect methodology for picking the right players, unfortunately. You can only go by what you know. Fortunately, this piece should help you if you have any of the three players mentioned here on any of your fantasy rosters.
Let's dive into whether you should start or sit three receivers who are surely on plenty of playoff rosters.
Should I Start Courtland Sutton for Fantasy Football?
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is fresh off his team's bye week and is gearing up to face one of the league's middling pass defenses. He should be started this week. The Indianapolis Colts, who the Broncos will face on Sunday, have been about average at stopping wide receivers this season.

In normal PPR scoring formats, he's scored 17.1, 23.3, 19.0, 14.8, 29.7, and 16.2 fantasy points in his last six games. It would be unwise to sit him. The Broncos offense has been firing on all cylinders for over a month now. Fire him up. He's dropping WR1 numbers.
Should I Start DJ Moore for Fantasy Football?
Perhaps expectations for Moore entering the season were too high, but he's still logged double-digit PPR fantasy points in his last four games and is the WR14 overall. That puts him firmly in the WR2 range, so it doesn't make much sense to bench him against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15.

Despite the presence of WRs Rome Odunze and Keenan Allen, Moore remains the best wideout on his team and has a good chance of remaining as the primary first-read target. He may not have an astronomical ceiling, but in most leagues, he's worth a WR3/flex start at least. We'd prefer Sutton if you have to choose between him and Moore, though.
Should I Start Jordan Addison for Fantasy Football?
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison has struggled with consistency, but his upside is massive.
Jordan Addison among WRs over the past three weeks:
🟣 87.9 PFF grade (5th)
🟡 20 receptions (T-6th)
🟣 349 receiving yards (2nd)
🟡 4 receiving TDs (1st)
🟣 14 first downs (T-5th)
🟡 158.3 rating when targeted (1st) pic.twitter.com/Z76wcno0pH— PFF MIN Vikings (@PFF_Vikings) December 11, 2024
It's hard to justify benching him when he'll be facing the same team he caught eight of nine targets for 162 yards and a touchdown against in Week 12. As the team's WR2, though, it can be difficult to predict his blow-up games, but at least he has a nice floor.
Choosing between Sutton and Addison could be an agonizing affair, but you really can't go wrong with either. We'd personally go with Sutton since being a team's clear WR1 provides a safer floor. We'd recommend Addison over Moore if you're choosing between those two.

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Jauan Jennings, Courtland Sutton, Michael Pittman Jr.
The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
